Strafrecht

Criminal Justice worldwide has moved from revenge to justice in due time and place. This book describes the most important aspects of criminal justice, such as morally, religiously, culturally and socially unacceptable behaviour, freedom or security, blame, retribution or prevention.
It shows the reader what dilemmas occur around deed or perpetrator, suspect or victim, doing right or atoning, security or privacy, the voice of the people or administration of justice. And it addresses ‘the greater evil’: the power or powerlessness of criminal law where, for example rimes against humanity, tribunals, and truth commissions are concerned.
