  • Vagueness and Law

    Philosophical and Legal Perspectives

    Edited by Geert Keil, Ralf Poscher ...
    Vague expressions are omnipresent in natural language. As such, their use in legal texts is virtually inevitable. If a law contains vague terms, the question whether it applies to a particular case often lacks a clear answer. One of the fundamental pillars of the rule of law is legal certainty. The determinacy of the law enables people to use it as a guide and places judges in the position to ... Read more

    Edited by Geert Keil, Lara Keuck, Rico Hauswald ...
    Series series International Perspectives in Philosophy and Psychiatry
    In psychiatry there is no sharp boundary between the normal and the pathological. Although clear cases abound, it is often indeterminate whether a particular condition does or does not qualify as a mental disorder.

  • Forms Liberate

    Reclaiming the Jurisprudence of Lon L Fuller

    by Dr Kristen Rundle ...
    Lon L Fuller's account of what he termed 'the internal morality of law' is widely accepted as the classic twentieth century statement of the principles of the rule of law.

    Series series Law and Criminology (R0)
    Acclaimed as the "the most objective prosecutors in the world", the German prosecution service has long attracted the attention in the past of comparative law scholars.

    by Pablo E. Navarro, Jorge L. Rodríguez ...
    Series series Cambridge Introductions to Philosophy and Law

  • What is Criminology About?

    Philosophical Reflections

    Edited by Don Crewe, Ronnie Lippens ...
    Since its inception, criminology has had trouble answering the question of what it is about. But although many consider the answer to this question to be self-evident, this book pursues the provocative possibility that criminology does not know what the object of its study is; it merely knows what it is called. Aiming to foster dissent among those who claim to know what criminology is about – and ... Read more
