Tort law and criminal law are closely bound together but their relationship rarely receives sustained and rigorous scrutiny. This is the first significant project in England and Wales to address that shortcoming. Building on growing interest amongst both academics and practitioners in the relationship between tort and crime, it draws together leading experts to chart the field and explore key points of interest. It uses a range of perspectives from legal theory, doctrine, legal history and comparative law to address some of the most important and interesting links between tort and crime. Examples include how the illegality defence operates to avoid stultification of the law, the difference between criminal and civil causation, how the Motor Insurers' Bureau not only insures but acts to enforce laws and alter behaviour, and why civil law only very rarely restores specific property but the criminal law does it daily.

The fields of tort and crime have much in common in practice, particularly in how they both try to respond to wrongs and regulate future behaviour. Despite this commonality in fact, fascinating difficulties have hitherto not been resolved about how legal systems co-ordinate (or leave wild) the border between tort and crime. What is the purpose of tort law and criminal law, and how do you tell the difference between them? Do criminal lawyers and civil lawyers reason and argue in the same way? Are the rules on capacity, consent, fault, causation, secondary liability or defences the same in tort as in crime? How do the rules of procedure operate for each area? Are there points of overlap? When, how and why do tort and crime interact? This volume systematically answers these and other questions for eight legal systems: England, France, Germany, Sweden, Spain, Scotland, the Netherlands and Australia.--Résumé de l'éditeur.

Why can an individual who was found not guilty in criminal court be made to pay damages in a tort case? What is administrative or regulatory law? And how and why are different facets of the legal system so complex, nuanced, and different from each other? Understanding Aspects of the Law: A Guide to Criminal, Tort, and Regulatory Law helps students better understand how the areas of criminal law, tort or personal injury law, and regulatory or administrative law function, as well as the strengths and shortcomings of each. The opening chapter examines features of criminal law, elements of a criminal offense, breach of legal duty, the voluntary act requirement, the guilty mind, and strict liability. Additional chapters address criminal homicide, the insanity defense, the elements of a tort offense, the requirements for causation and proximate causation, product liability, and ultrahazardous activities. Students learn about the differences between criminal law and torts, environmental health laws, rights protection under administrative laws, sanctions, political pressures, and more. Throughout the book, excerpts from court cases help students better understand specific areas of the law. Understanding Aspects of the Law is an illuminating and essential resource for courses and programs in law, as well as legal and moral philosophy.

In Rights Forfeiture and Punishment, Christopher Heath Wellman argues that those who seek to defend the moral permissibility of punishment should shift their focus from general justifying aims to moral side constraints. On Wellman's view, punishment is permissible just in case the wrongdoer has forfeited her right against punishment.
