This unique work sheds much new light on the old problem of conceptualization and classification within criminal law. Paul H. Robinson argues that the current operational structure of criminal law fails to fully account for its different functions, and proceeds to suggest new sample codes of criminal conduct and adjudication in a study that will be seen as an incisive departure from today's pragmatic approach. The book is an important and well-rounded exploration of the structure of criminal law systems that will appeal to both teachers of law and policy-makers around the globe.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Professor Robinson provides a new critique of the often neglected problem of classification within the criminal law. He presents a discussion of the present conceptual framework of the law, and offers explanations of how and why formal structures do not match the operation of law in practice.

He goes on to suggest new sample codes of criminal conduct and criminal adjudication which mark a real departure from the pragmatic approach which presently dominates code-making.
