Book Description
With industrialization and globalization, corporations acquired the capacity to influence social life for good or for ill. Yet, corporations are not traditional objects of criminal law. Justified by notions of personal moral guilt, criminal norms have been judged inapplicable to fictional persons, who ‘think’ and ‘act’ through human beings. The expansion of new corporate criminal liability (CCL) laws since the mid-1990s challenges this assumption. Our volume surveys current practice on CCL in 15 civil and common law jurisdictions, exploring the legal conditions for liability, the principles and options for sanctioning, and the procedures for investigating, charging and trying corporate offenders. It considers whether municipal CCL laws are converging around the notion of ‘corporate culture’, and, in any case, the implications of CCL for those charged with keeping corporations, and other legal entities, out of trouble.

Book Description
La presente obra está compuesta por una serie de trabajos del Prof. Dr. Dr.h.c. Miguel Bajo Fernández sobre cuestiones del Derecho penal económico y, en concreto, de la responsabilidad penal de las personas jurídicas y el delito de blanqueo de capitales. Comienza con una exposición del concepto del Derecho penal de una manera sintética sobre la base del Derecho positivo español. Continúan dos problemas graves de teoría jurídica del delito. De un lado, el error vencible de prohibición frente a los delitos económicos en los que el conocimiento de la antijuricidad tiene que ir necesariamente anudado al conocimiento de la ley escrita. De otro lado, y en segundo lugar, la pertenencia del Derecho penal económico a lo que se llama el modelo expansivo del derecho penal cercano al denostado Derecho penal simbólico. Por lo que respecta a la responsabilidad penal de las personas jurídicas la exposición del profesor Miguel Bajo es paralela a la evolución del Derecho penal español. En lo relativo al blanqueo de capitales, el profesor Bajo entiende que es uno de los exponentes de expansión del derecho penal violentando de una manera escandalosa el principio de legalidad, como ocurre con otras figuras del propio Derecho penal económico. En este sentido, el profesor Miguel Bajo es enemigo profundo de la regulación que se hace a nivel internacional sobre el blanqueo de capitales que sobrepasa hoy los supuestos originales de terrorismo y narcotráfico para referirse a todo hecho ilícito.

Book Description
This volume represents the first attempt to systematically compare organised crime concepts, as well as historical and contemporary patterns and control policies in thirteen European countries. These include seven ‘old’ EU Member States, two ‘new’ members, a candidate country, and three non-EU countries. Based on a standardised research protocol, thirty-three experts from different legal and social disciplines provide insight through detailed country reports. On this basis, the editors compare organised crime patterns and policies in Europe and assess EU initiatives against organised crime.

Book Description
This book presents the latest and most relevant studies, surveys, and succinct reviews in the field of financial crimes and cybercrime, conducted and gathered by a group of top professionals, scholars, and researchers from China, India, Spain, Italy, Poland, Germany, and Russia. Focusing on the threats posed by and corresponding approaches to controlling financial crime and cybercrime, the book informs readers about emerging trends in the evolution of international crime involving cyber-technologies and the latest financial tools, as well as future challenges that could feasibly be overcome with a more sound criminal legislation framework and adequate criminal management. In turn, the book highlights innovative methods for combating financial crime and cybercrime, e.g., establishing an effective supervision system over P2P; encouraging financial innovation and coordination with international anti-terrorism organizations and multiple countries; improving mechanisms for extraditing and punishing criminals who defect to another country; designing a protection system in accordance with internationally accepted standards; and reforming economic criminal offenses and other methods that will produce positive results in practice. Given its scope, the book will prove useful to legal professionals and researchers alike. It gathers selected proceedings of the 10th International Forum on Crime and Criminal Law in the Global Era (IFCCLGE), held on Nov 20–Dec 1, 2019, in Beijing, China.

Book Description
The last twenty years have witnessed an astonishing transformation: the fight against corruption has grown from a handful of local undertakings into a truly global effort. Law occupies a central role in that effort and this timely book assesses the challenges faced in using law as it too morphs from a handful of local rules into a global regime. The book presents the perspectives of a global array of scholars, of policy makers, and of practitioners. Topics range from critical theoretical understandings of the global regime as a whole, to regional and local experiences in implementing and influencing the regime, including specific legal techniques such as deferred prosecution agreements, addressing corruption issues in dispute resolution, whistleblower protection, civil and administrative prosecutions, as well as blocking statutes. The book also includes discussions of the future shape of the global regime, the emergence of transnational compliance standards, and discussions by leaders of international organizations that take a leading role in the transnationalization of anti-corruption law. The Transnationalization of Anti-Corruption Law deals with the most salient aspects of the global anti-corruption regime. It is written by people who contribute to the structure of the regime, who practice within the regime, and who study the regime. It is written for anyone interested in corruption or corruption control in general, anyone with a general interest in jurisprudence or in international law, and especially anyone who is interested in critical thinking and analysis of how law can control corruption in a global context.

Book Description
El presente libro aborda el análisis del modelo de atribución de responsabilidad penal de las personas jurídicas en el ordenamiento jurídico español, establecido mediante LO 5/2010 de Reforma del Código Penal. Tras unas breves notas sobre la evolución legislativa, histórica y de derecho comparado, se estudian los problemas más relevantes de la responsabilidad penal corporativa (incapacidad de acción y culpabilidad de la persona jurídica, aspectos diferenciadores entre el derecho administrativo sancionador y el derecho penal, sistemas de prevención a través de los compliance programs, cuestiones de orden procesal así como estudio de la jurisprudencia más relevante en la materia). Además de analizar las cuestiones dogmáticas y prácticas relacionadas con la responsabilidad penal de las corporaciones, el autor dedica un análisis crítico a lo que se ha convertido hoy en el debate de los especialistas sobre el alcance de este nuevo modelo de responsabilidad. Se trata en última instancia de decidir si este modelo implica tan solo –que no es poco- el nacimiento de un nuevo sujeto de derecho penal, o si, yendo mucho más lejos, se entiende que, en la era postindustrial, este sujeto ha desplazado a la persona física como verdadero protagonista de las relaciones sociales y jurídicas (teoría deshumanizante). Se incluye también un análisis crítico de los dogmas funcionalistas en los que el autor individualiza el origen de esta nueva categoría de responsabilidad penal. Jacinto Pérez Arias es Doctor en Derecho y profesor de Derecho Penal de la Universidad de Murcia. Su dedicación al Derecho Penal a lo largo de los años no se ha limitado a la realización de su tesis doctoral en esta rama del Derecho, sino que se ha visto completada con dos estudios de postgrado en Mediación Penal y Derecho Penal Internacional. Dedicado también al ejercicio profesional de la abogacía en materia penal es autor de numerosas publicaciones sobre la disciplina. En la actualidad es investigador colaborador en proyectos nacionales e internacionales relacionados tanto con la parte general como especial del Derecho Penal.
