The book examines the need for individual assessment of criminal responsibility for children and young persons in England and Germany, finding evidence for its continued relevance and proposing how these rules could be formulated and applied effectively.

Format: Hardback
Publication date: 01 January 2021
Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd

This title, originally published in 2002, delves into the question of whether there is still a need for an individual assessment of the criminal responsibility of children and young persons in modern society. Through a comparative and historical analysis of the relevant law and practice in England and Germany, the author examines this issue in depth. After concluding that there is indeed a need for such an assessment, the author proceeds to address the question of how these special rules should be formulated and applied in practice. The book offers a thorough and comprehensive approach to this highly controversial issue, critically evaluating the recent abolition of the presumption of doli incapax in England and providing valuable material on the German Law in this area.
