    Book SynopsisDer fünfte Band dokumentiert in zwei Teilbänden die Strafverfahren wegen Rechtsbeugung durch die DDR-Justiz.

  • MfS-Straftaten

    De Gruyter MfS-Straftaten

    Book SynopsisDer sechste Band dokumentiert die Verfolgung von MfS-Straftaten. Gegenstand der Verfahren waren zum einen standardisierte Maßnahmen des Ministeriums für Staatssicherheit der DDR, wie das Abhören von Telefongesprächen, die Postkontrolle und die konspirative Wohnungsdurchsuchung. Dazu gehört auch der Bruch der beruflichen Schweigepflicht durch Ärzte und Rechtsanwälte, die dem MfS als inoffizielle Mitarbeiter zuarbeiteten. Zum anderen befasste sich die Strafjustiz mit Aktivitäten des MfS, die nach Art und Ausführung eher den Charakter von Einzelfallmaßnahmen hatten: Mordanschläge, Verschleppungen, Denunziationen von Fluchtvorhaben und regimekritischen Handlungen, unerlaubte Festnahmen, Repressalien gegen Ausreiseantragsteller, die Einwirkung auf psychiatrische Behandlungen sowie die Aufnahme von Angehörigen der "Rote Armee Fraktion" in der DDR. Angeklagt waren neben hauptamtlichen und inoffiziellen Mitarbeitern des MfS auch Privatpersonen, die in MfS-Aktionen verstrickt waren. Die Dokumentation zeigt die umfassende Durchdringung aller Lebensbereiche der DDR-Gesellschaft durch das MfS. Zugleich werden die besonderen rechtlichen und tatsächlichen Schwierigkeiten deutlich, vor die sich die Strafjustiz bei der Aufarbeitung dieser Deliktsgruppe gestellt sah.

  • Die normativen Grenzen der Wahrheitserforschung im Strafverfahren: Ideen zu einer Kritik der Funktionsfähigkeit der Strafrechtspflege

    De Gruyter Die normativen Grenzen der Wahrheitserforschung im Strafverfahren: Ideen zu einer Kritik der Funktionsfähigkeit der Strafrechtspflege

    Book SynopsisDie normativen Grenzen der Wahrheitserforschung im Strafverfahren stellen die wohl komplexeste und umstrittenste Thematik des Strafverfahrensrechts dar, die nach wie vor von ungebrochener Aktualität und hoher Praxisrelevanz ist. Sie begegnet dem Staatsanwalt und Ermittlungsrichter als Frage nach dem nicht mehr zulässigen Bereich hoheitlicher Zwangsmaßnahmen und deren Folgen; dem erkennenden Richter als Diskrepanz von faktischer und legitimer Erkenntnis; dem Strafverteidiger als Chance des Ausschlusses von Mitteln des Tatnachweises und als Risiko des Verlusts entlastender Beweise; dem Gesetzgeber als taktische Frage nach dem Maß der Festlegung auf verbindliche Standards der Wahrheitserforschung; der Verfassungsgerichtsbarkeit als noch legitimer Entscheidungsspielraum der Rechtsprechung und Gesetzgebung; und dem rechtsphilosophisch Interessierten als Frage nach der Bedeutung "verbotenen Wissens" für das Urteilen. Mit einem radikal grundlagenorientierten Ansatz plädiert der Verfasser für eine - bislang vernachlässigte - Auseinandersetzung mit den erkenntnistheoretischen Implikationen der Beweisverbotsproblematik und gelangt zu überraschenden Einsichten: in die erkenntnistheoretische Unmöglichkeit einer Ausblendung verbotenen Wissens; in die komplexitätserzeugende Wirkung juristischer Theoriebildungen; in die normative Distanz zwischen Beweis und zu Beweisendem; in die strukturellen Unzulänglichkeiten einer Abwägungslehre; in den Begründungsmangel hypothetischer Ersatzerwägungen; in das Legitimationsdefizit nicht gesetzlich geregelter Beweisverbote; in die Notwendigkeit einer funktionalen Trennung von anordendem und erkennendem Gericht etc. An dieser Auseinandersetzung wird die Beweisverbotsdiskussion nicht vorbeikommen.

  • The Machinery of Criminal Justice

    Oxford University Press The Machinery of Criminal Justice

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisTwo centuries ago, American criminal justice was run primarily by laymen. Jury trials passed moral judgment on crimes, vindicated victims and innocent defendants, and denounced the guilty. But since then, lawyers have gradually taken over the process, silencing victims and defendants and, in many cases, substituting plea bargaining for the voice of the jury. The public sees little of how this assembly-line justice works, and victims and defendants have largely lost their day in court. As a result, victims rarely hear defendants express remorse and apologize, and defendants rarely receive forgiveness. This lawyerized machinery has purchased efficient, speedy processing of many cases at the price of sacrificing softer values, such as reforming defendants and healing wounded victims and relationships. In other words, the U.S. legal system has bought quantity at the price of quality, without recognizing either the trade-off or the great gulf separating lawyers'' and laymen''s incentives, vTrade ReviewIn The Machinery of Criminal Justice, author Stephanos Bibas presents a bold and inspiring vision of what criminal justice and the punishment imposed in its name can and should be about. Criminal justice is ideally the process, and punishment ideally the vehicle, through which wronged and wrongdoer restore the bond they once shared. Restoration, not retribution or deterrence, is the rock upon which Bibas builds." * Stephen P. Garvey, Professor of Law, Cornell Law School *The Machinery of Criminal Justice is an exceptional volume that gives us the big picture on a scholarly subject too often hobbled by technical focus and narrow thinking. Always accessible and always interesting, Bibas asks some hard questions and gives some creative answers. Common morality, lay justice, mercy, re-integrative punishment - these are the issues at the cutting edge of today's crime policy debates, but Bibas shows us that they are also the historical roots of American criminal justice." * Paul H. Robinson, Colin S. Diver Professor of Law, University of Pennsylvania, author, with Michael Cahill, of Law Without Justice *Th[e] embrace of populism as a counterweight to expertise sets Bibas apart. The academics and professionals who work in criminal justice routinely look for ways to insulate criminal punishment from popular passions; they hope to take advantage of specialized professional insights. Bibas offers a bracing challenge to this received expert wisdom." * Ronald Wright, Criminal Law and Criminal Justice Book Review *Through a series of articles spanning more than a decade, Professor Stephanos Bibas has proven himself a bold and penetrating critic of America's system of criminal procedure. His theme has been the gap between the morality embodied in our substantive criminal law and the morality (or, perhaps more accurately, the lack thereof) embodied in our procedural rules and practices. This theme now gets its fullest exposition in his provocative new book, The Machinery of Criminal Justice." * Michael M. O'Hear, University of Pennsylvania Law Review Online *His vision is a powerful one, he defends it with clarity and grace, and every idea he expresses is capable of starting an important conversation." * Andrew Taslitz, Jotwell *Table of ContentsAuthor Biography ; Acknowledgements ; Introduction: The Divergence of Theory, Reality, and Morality ; Overview of the Book ; Themes of the Book ; Chapter I: The Long Drift from Morality Play to Assembly Line ; A.

  • Justice in Extreme Cases

    Cambridge University Press Justice in Extreme Cases

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisIn Justice in Extreme Cases, Darryl Robinson argues that the encounter between criminal law theory and international criminal law (ICL) can be illuminating in two directions: criminal law theory can challenge and improve ICL, and conversely, ICL''s novel puzzles can challenge and improve mainstream criminal law theory. Robinson recommends a ''coherentist'' method for discussions of principles, justice and justification. Coherentism recognizes that prevailing understandings are fallible, contingent human constructs. This book will be a valuable resource to scholars and jurists in ICL, as well as scholars of criminal law theory and legal philosophy.Trade Review'Robinson's brilliant Justice in Extreme Cases has rehabilitated international criminal law using a deft combination of sophisticated philosophy, legal doctrine, and level-headed policy. In rediscovering the justice in international criminal justice, Robinson's book sails against the prevailing winds of an increasingly cynical discipline and takes the reader on a refreshing journey.' Jens David Ohlin, Vice Dean and Professor of Law, Cornell Law School'Darryl Robinson's important and compelling book marks a significant contribution to the literature on International Criminal Law. His rich and careful analysis is full of insights, providing a roadmap for better reasoned judicial opinions and welcome reforms that will re-commit the law to fundamental principles of justice.' Alexander K. A. Greenawalt, Professor of Law, Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University'Drumbl produced a generation of expressivists, and Robinson is poised to create a generation of deontic cosmopolitan coherentists. Justice in Extreme Cases provides an eminently humane and sensible view of international criminal legal theory and offers a look at the theory in action with a compelling analysis of command responsibility. Anyone working in (or even just interested in) international criminal law should read this book.' Caroline L. Davidson, Professor of Law, Willamette University, College of Law'This well-reasoned, bountifully sourced, and exceptionally insightful book … If … you are interested in some challenging thinking that questions orthodoxies … and if you are in search of a new way of thinking about the interpretation and application of ICL, then Justice in Extreme Cases - Criminal Law Theory Meets International Criminal Law delivers.' Michael G. Karnavas, michaelgkarnavas.net'This is a very significant contribution to the theory of international criminal law (ICL) … by … a prominent member of the Canadian Government's team that worked on the ICC negotiations …Robinson sets out his … appealing jurisprudential stance for approaching such questions [and] weighs in persuasively on a matter of great significance.' Roger S. Clark, Criminal Law ForumDarryl Robinson has firmly established himself as a leading and original theorist in the area of international criminal law (ICL). Robinson's book has received widespread and justified praise…. [T]here is no aspect of ICL that could not be improved by adopting Robinson's approach to legal theory.

  • Cambridge University Press AntiImpunity and the Human Rights Agenda

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisIn the twenty-first century, fighting impunity has become both the rallying cry and a metric of progress for human rights. The new emphasis on criminal prosecution represents a fundamental change in the positions and priorities of students and practitioners of human rights and transitional justice: it has become almost unquestionable common sense that criminal punishment is a legal, political, and pragmatic imperative for addressing human rights violations. This book challenges that common sense. It does so by documenting and critically analyzing the trend toward an anti-impunity norm in a variety of institutional and geographical contexts, with an eye toward the interaction between practices at the global and local levels. Together, the chapters demonstrate how this laser focus on anti-impunity has created blind spots in practice and in scholarship that result in a constricted response to human rights violations, a narrowed conception of justice, and an impoverished approach to peace.Trade Review'This is an exceptional edited volume. Whereas most edited volumes, unfortunately, do not go beyond collecting various perspectives on a theme, this book presents a clear argument: the anti-impunity turn in human rights law is not a linear development of progress and can have dangerous consequences. In setting forth these consequences, and analysing alternatives to the modus of criminal justice that the anti-impunity struggle has chosen as its preferred instrument, the book offers avenues towards richer and thicker conceptions and experiences of justice.' Sarah Nouwen, Co-Deputy Director of the Lauterpacht Centre for International Law, University of Cambridge'This is the first sustained analysis of the 'anti-impunity' norm and discourse associated with the human rights movement. At the center of the project is the ambition to make the familiar strange and to expose taken-for-granted assumptions and identifications to critical scrutiny in a way that poses a powerful challenge to norms that frame contemporary international politics and interventions. … This book should be of great interest to a wide audience of scholars and policymakers. It articulates a direct rejoinder to what remains the dominant or conventional view among human rights scholars regarding the anti-impunity norm, while charting the path to a broader debate on the role of the human rights movement more generally.' Bronwyn Leebaw, University of California, Riverside'An urgent question of political strategy drives this extraordinary collection: when should people of good heart embrace the national or international machinery of government, prosecution and punishment? And when should they resist, seek alternate paths to justice, speak truth to the power of the state or the international community? The human rights movement offers a half-century case study, shifting sharply from international calls for 'amnesty' when states abuse their penal authority to a full-bore embrace of criminal punishment and 'no impunity.' To figure out what happened, what worked and what didn't, the editors have curated a discussion among our most reflective and engaged scholars of international law, writing at their best. The result is challenging and surprising: crucial reading for anyone thinking strategically about ethics and global justice.' David Kennedy, Manley O. Hudson Professor of Law, Harvard Law School, Massachusetts'Put simply, the turn to criminal repression of international human rights law is one of the most intriguing global legal developments of the last decades. Anti-Impunity and the Human Rights Agenda not only does a great job of showing how dominant a move this has become, it also spares no effort in showing how contested, ambiguous, productive, and paradoxical that move is. A welcome problematization of what has become one of the great obsessions of our times.' Frédéric Mégret, McGill University, Montréal'They conclude that a laser focus on anti-impunity has created blind spots in both practice and scholarship that result in a constricted response to human rights violations, a narrowed conception of justice, and an impoverished approach to peace.'
