Description

Central Issues in Criminal Theory by William Wilson explores the key questions in criminal theory, addressing the ethics of criminalisation and punishment. The book examines the structure of criminal liability, separating consideration of objective wrongdoing from personal responsibility, and investigates attempts and accessoryship to identify doctrinal tensions. By setting goals and identifying deficiencies, criminal theory aims to improve the form and content of rules and procedures. Wilson's accessible style makes this book a valuable resource for those embarking on courses in advanced criminal law and criminal theory, as well as practitioners and scholars seeking to understand the present state of criminal theory. This book provides an insightful analysis of the complex issues at the heart of criminal justice, offering a clear and concise exploration of the subject.
