Description

Frontiers of Criminality provides original insights into why and how forms of behaviour become, or stop being criminal. As criminal law is being seen as increasingly contextual, students of the subject will benefit from the book's exploration of how broad social and policy considerations underlie the criminalisation and decriminalisation of certain types of behaviour.

The criminalisation of offences against intellectual property. Criminalising the trader to protect the consumer. Regulating sexual offences within the home.
