Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "El presente libro aborda diversos temas fundamentales del Derecho penal desde una perspectiva normativa basada en el funcionalismo jurídico-penal. La línea directriz del enfoque del autor retoma de alguna forma el plan normativista trazado por los penalistas hegelianos de la primera mitad del S. XIX, que concibieron la imputación como la atribución de un significado de antinormatividad de un hecho, e igualmente se entronca con las líneas básicas de un pensamiento socio-normativo del primer WELZEL, de los años treinta del Siglo XX, momento en el que de manera magistral llevó a un compás el Derecho penal y la Sociedad con su famosa teoría de la adecuación social, para finalmente redondear la argumentación con la sustancia de una dogmática funcionalista desarrollada por Günther JAKOBS de una forma admirable en los últimos treinta años. Temas como la imputación objetiva y subjetiva, la prohibición de regreso, los delitos de infracción de deber, el Derecho penal del enemigo, el deber de solidaridad mínima, el delito tributario, la combinación de leyes penales, la pena de muerte, entre otros más, son abordados funcionalmente a partir del criterio del rol social o del ámbito de competencias como herramienta central para el análisis de la relevancia penal de la conducta del autor. Por esta razón este libro se convierte en un material de inexcusable referencia para comprender la aplicación del sistema penal funcionalista a la solución de los casos prácticos de la vida real".

Download or read book Exceptionalism and the Politics of Counter Terrorism written by Andrew W. Neal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-10-16 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an analysis and critique of the concepts of ‘exception’ and ‘exceptionalism’ in the context of the politics of liberty and security in the so-called ‘War on Terror’. Since the destruction of the World Trade Centre on September 11th 2001, a notable transformation has occurred in political discourse and practice. Politicians and commentators have frequently made the argument that the rules of the game have changed, that this is a new kind of war, and that exceptional times require exceptional measures. Under this discourse of exceptionalism, an array of measures have been put into practice, such as detention without trial, ‘extraordinary rendition’, derogations from human rights law, sanction or connivance in torture, the curtailment of civil liberties, and aggressive war against international law. Situating exceptionalism within the post-9/11 controversy about the relationship between liberty and security, this book argues that the problem of exceptionalism emerges from the limits and paradoxes of liberal democracy itself. It is a commentary and critique of both contemporary practices of exceptionalism and the critical debate that has formed in response. Through a detailed assessment of the key theoretical contributions to the debate, this book develops exceptionalism as a critical tool. It also engages with the problem of exceptionalism as a discursive claim, as a strategy, as a concept, as a theoretical problem and as a practice. This is the first book to capture the importance of the exceptionalism debate in a single volume, and will be of much interest to students of critical security studies, political philosophy, IR theory and sociology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Günther Jakobs, profesor emérito de Derecho penal y filosofía del Derecho en la Universidad de Bonn, ha elaborado en los últimos treinta años un edificio teórico que destaca, ante todo, porque intenta establecer el sentido de la pena estatal no sólo desde la perspectiva aislada del autor y de su hecho (ni, desde luego, de la de la víctima y su sufrimiento), sino también desde el punto de vista de su función social. Esta perspectiva fundamental define todas las instituciones de la teoría del delito, y, muy especialmente, la de la culpabilidad, inextricablemente unida a la función de la pena en la teoría de la prevención general positiva. En la presente publicación, Jakobs aborda tres cuestiones nucleares en este ámbito central de la reflexión jurídico-penal: en primer lugar, el problema de los límites de la pena estatal ante la emergencia jurídico-positiva de nuevas formas de Derecho penal de excepción, en el marco de la polémica construcción teórica por él elaborada bajo el rótulo de “Derecho penal del enemigo”; en segundo lugar, la relevancia de los nuevos conocimientos científicos generados en los últimos años por la investigación neurológica para el concepto jurídico-penal de culpabilidad; en tercer lugar, el problema -tradicional, pero que adquiere nueva relevancia en el momento actual- de la posible influencia de una socialización ajena al contexto de la sociedad en la que se aplica la norma jurídico-penal en el contenido de la culpabilidad. Los tres estudios del profesor Jakobs aquí reunidos se acompañan de breves réplicas elaboradas por profesores de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid y de una síntesis del debate producido en el marco de un seminario realizado en otoño de 2006. Se documenta así, en el septuagésimo cumpleaños del autor, el intenso intercambio de opiniones entre el profesor de Bonn y la ciencia del Derecho penal hecha en español.

This book was released on 2022-04-01 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las ideas que se proponen en este trabajo toman principalmente por base las elaboraciones teóricas propuestas, durante su larga carrera científica, por el profesor alemán Günther Jakobs. Son varias décadas de investigación de ya una escuela (la escuela de Bonn) que cuenta con seguidores en muchos países europeos y americanos, donde académicos y dogmáticos del derecho penal profundizaron y explicaron sus conceptos, crearon nuevas categorías e impulsaron profundas discusiones penales. En suma, donde se ha pretendido estudiar los problemas sociales a partir de una visión holística de la ciencia penal; una visión no individualista y en muchos aspectos más cercana a la posmodernidad. Es una perspectiva funcional-normativista del derecho penal que consideramos apta y con suficiente capacidad de rendimiento para explicar el derecho penal de la sociedad mundo, donde el riesgo y la diferenciación deben ser entendidos. Esta moderna sociedad también conoce el crimen, lo que sucede es que este es ahora global, propio de estructuras organizativas de muchos órdenes, de macroestructuras criminales nacionales y trasnacionales que operan en redes. En definitiva, son nuevas formas de aparición del fenómeno criminal que desafían todos los días la capacidad de aprehensión teórica de la dogmática del derecho penal tradicional. Ante estas nuevas realidades una concepción normativa de la ciencia penal ilumina el camino, abre senderos hasta ahora poco recorridos y, por consiguiente, aporta cimientos a la tan anhelada seguridad jurídica. En estas líneas se pretende explicar los elementos fundamentales de la imputación penal en supuestos de macrocriminalidad y de crímenes internacionales, ámbitos donde la imputación penal no puede ser entendida solamente desde la acción individual del agente. Por ello, la propuesta que hacemos es un modelo social de imputación, a partir de los elementos de las teorías de la imputación objetiva y de las posiciones de garante, buscando así crear un gran esquema interpretativo de la realidad de la gran criminalidad. En la primera parte de este trabajo expondremos la discusión tradicional sobre responsabilidad penal al interior de estructuras delincuenciales, explicando las diferentes propuestas de solución para la imputación del jefe o cabecilla de la organización. Pues en efecto, todos los esfuerzos teóricos han estado enfocados desde siempre en la responsabilidad individual de un sujeto, quizás el más importante dentro de la organización, pero a la vez quien menos contribuye empíricamente al hecho, y poco en la responsabilidad de la organización o del colectivo. Las visiones causalista o finalista del delito palidecen ante semejante desafío. Solo la pionera propuesta de Claus Roxin sobre autoría mediata en virtud de aparatos organizados de poder puede ser leída generosamente como un antecedente importante para una correcta solución; no obstante, el lector atento podrá advertir que la importancia del aporte de este autor se ve menguada por el apego a categorías tradicionales del derecho penal.

Download or read book Against the Death Penalty written by Cesare Beccaria and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first known abolitionist critique of the death penalty—here for the first time in English In 1764, a Milanese aristocrat named Cesare Beccaria created a sensation when he published On Crimes and Punishments. At its centre is a rejection of the death penalty as excessive, unnecessary, and pointless. Beccaria is deservedly regarded as the founding father of modern criminal-law reform, yet he was not the first to argue for the abolition of the death penalty. Against the Death Penalty presents the first English translation of the Florentine aristocrat Giuseppe Pelli's critique of capital punishment, written three years before Beccaria's treatise, but lost for more than two centuries in the Pelli family archives. Peter Garnsey examines the contrasting arguments of the two abolitionists, who drew from different intellectual traditions. Pelli was a devout Catholic influenced by the writings of natural jurists such as Hugo Grotius, whereas Beccaria was inspired by the French Enlightenment philosophers. While Beccaria attacked the criminal justice system as a whole, Pelli focused on the death penalty, composing a critique of considerable depth and sophistication. Garnsey explores how Beccaria's alternative penalty of forced labour, and its conceptualisation as servitude, were embraced in Britain and America, and delves into Pelli's voluminous diaries, shedding light on Pelli's intellectual development and painting a vivid portrait of an Enlightenment man of letters and of conscience. With translations of letters exchanged by the two abolitionists and selections from Beccaria's writings, Against the Death Penalty provides new insights into eighteenth-century debates about capital punishment and offers vital historical perspectives on one of the most pressing questions of our own time.
Download or read book Marketisation and Privatisation in Criminal Justice written by Albertson, Kevin and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2020-07-03 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection offers a comprehensive review of the origins, scale and breadth of the privatisation and marketisation revolution across the criminal justice system. Leading academics and researchers assess the consequences of market-driven criminal justice in a wide range of contexts, from prison and probation to policing, migrant detention, rehabilitation and community programmes. Using economic, sociological and criminological perspectives, illuminated by accessible case studies, they consider the shifting roles and interactions of the public, private and voluntary sectors. As privatisation, outsourcing and the impact of market cultures spread further across the system, the authors look ahead to future developments and signpost the way to reform in a ‘post-market’ criminal justice sphere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A true story of violence and punishment that illuminates a transformative moment in Guatemalan history On the morning of July 1, 1800, a surveyor and mapmaker named Cayetano Díaz opened the window of his study in Guatemala City to find a horrific sight: a pair of severed breasts. Offering a meticulously researched and evocative account of the quest to find the perpetrator and understand the motives behind such a brutal act, this volume pinpoints the sensational crime as a watershed moment in Guatemalan history that radically changed the nature of justice and the established social order. Sylvia Sellers-García reveals how this bizarre and macabre event spurred an increased attention to crime that resulted in more forceful policing and reflected important policy decisions not only in Guatemala but across Latin America. This fascinating book is both an engaging criminal case study and a broader consideration of the forces shaping Guatemala City at the brink of the modern era.
