The first two editions of the best-selling Law 101 provided readers with a vividly written and indispensable portrait of our nation's legal system. Now, in this third edition, Jay M. Feinman offers a fully updated survey of American law that incorporates fresh material on 2009 Supreme Court cases, the legal response to the war on terror (including the Guantanamo detainees and electronic surveillance), and to the latest developments in Internet law. In a book brimming with legal puzzles, interesting anecdotes, and thought-provoking questions, Jay M. Feinman's clear introduction to the law provides us with a solid understanding of the American legal tradition and covers the main subjects taught in the first year of law school. Readers are introduced to every aspect of the legal system, from constitutional law and the litigation process to tort law, contract law, property law, and criminal law. Feinman illuminates each discussion with many intriguing, outrageous, and infamous cases, from the scalding coffee case that cost McDonald's half a million dollars, to the sensational murder trial in Victorian London that led to the legal definition of insanity, to the epochal decision in Marbury v. Madison that gave the Supreme Court the power to declare state and federal law unconstitutional. He broadens the reader's legal vocabulary, clarifying the meaning of everything from "due process" and "equal protection" in constitutional law to the distinction between "murder" and "manslaughter" in criminal law. Perhaps most important, we learn that though the law is voluminous and complex, it is accessible to all. Everyone who wants a better grasp of current legal issues--from students contemplating law school, to journalists covering the legislature or the courts, to fans of Court TV--will find here a wonderful source of information: a complete, clear, and colorful map of the American legal system.

This book deals with various aspects of criminal law, including its relationship to a wide range of disciplines such as philosophy, sociology, and technology. It first considers a range of approaches and methods used in the analysis of criminal law, including economics, feminist studies, critical race theory, criminology, history, and literature. It then traces the origins of modern criminal law to medieval canon law and examines indigenous legal traditions before discussing the collapse of pre-modern criminal justice and the transition to modernity. The book also reviews the general principles of criminal liability; topics covered include constitutional criminal law, actus reus, mens rea, corporate criminal liability, consent, self-defense, necessity, duress, insanity and intoxication, as well as jurisdiction and sentencing. Different types of crimes are analyzed, including public welfare offenses, inchoate crimes, offenses against the person and against sexual autonomy, property offenses, drug offenses, regulatory offenses, and terrorism. Throughout, the book takes a broadly comparative and contextual approach that regards criminal law as a global discipline.

The Oxford Handbook of Criminal Law reflects the continued transformation of criminal law into a global discipline, providing scholars with a comprehensive international resource, a common point of entry into cutting edge contemporary research and a snapshot of the state and scope of the field. To this end, the Handbook takes a broad approach to its subject matter, disciplinarily, geographically, and systematically. Its contributors include current and future research leaders representing a variety of legal systems, methodologies, areas of expertise, and research agendas. The Handbook is divided into four parts: Approaches & Methods (I), Systems & Methods (II), Aspects & Issues (III), and Contexts & Comparisons (IV). Part I includes essays exploring various methodological approaches to criminal law (such as criminology, feminist studies, and history). Part II provides an overview of systems or models of criminal law, laying the foundation for further inquiry into specific conceptions of criminal law as well as for comparative analysis (such as Islamic, Marxist, and military law). Part III covers the three aspects of the penal process: the definition of norms and principles of liability (substantive criminal law), along with a less detailed treatment of the imposition of norms (criminal procedure) and the infliction of sanctions (prison or corrections law). Contributors consider the basic topics traditionally addressed in scholarship on the general and special parts of the substantive criminal law (such as jurisdiction, mens rea, justifications, and excuses). Part IV places criminal law in context, both domestically and transnationally, by exploring the contrasts between criminal law and other species of law and state power and by investigating criminal law's place in the projects of comparative law, transnational, and international law.

"Criminal law is one of the most important classes you will take in law school. For some students, it is important because they want to become prosecutors, defense lawyers, or judges. However, a course in criminal law is also important for those students who see their futures in civil practice. Especially in today's society, it is not unusual for clients from all walks of life to have problems that implicate the criminal justice system. For example, a simple business transaction may trigger questions regarding fraud, or a family law case can raise issues regarding criminal abuse. In the final analysis, criminal law is important because it teaches you how to read statutes, interpret them in light of hundreds of years of common law, and argue their application in light of today's policy concerns"--

Presently, many of the greatest debates and controversies in international criminal law concern modes of liability for international crimes. The state of the law is unclear, to the detriment of accountability for major crimes and of the uniformity of international criminal law. The present book aims at clarifying the state of the law and provides a thorough analysis of the jurisprudence of international courts and tribunals, as well as of the debates and the questions these debates have left open. Renowned international criminal law scholars analyze, in discrete chapters, the modes of liability one by one; for each mode they identify the main trends in the jurisprudence and the main points of controversy. An introduction addresses the cross-cutting issues, and a conclusion anticipates possible evolutions that we may see in the future. The research on which this book is based was undertaken with the Geneva Academy.

Inchoate crimes - attempts, incitement and conspiracy - are a complex area of law, affected by both common law doctrine and statutory regimes. Inchoate Crimes provides much needed guidance on the subject. The author draws on developed doctrines in other relevant jurisdictions to suggest alternative approaches for Scots law. This title also combines substantive material with discussion on the nature and justification for the punishment of such crimes. It should assist criminal lawyers in everyday practice by explaining the current state of Scots law surrounding inchoate crimes and suggesting alternative approaches where Scottish authority is deficient or entirely absent.
