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
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
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.

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 edited volume presents an innovative and critical analysis of corporate compliance from an interdisciplinary and international perspective. It defines the historical framework and the various roles played by corporate compliance in today's context. It questions how different cultures affect economic behaviors and under which conditions the individual choices may be directed toward law-abiding behavior. Examining corporate compliance as a tool of criminal and regulatory policy strategies in different countries and sectors, this book also aims to provide a picture of the dimension and scope of the public-private partnership, focusing on the prevention and detection of corporate crimes. It analyzes the effects of corporate compliance on the internal organization in terms of cost-benefit assessment, as well as the opportunities in technical innovation for detecting and controlling risk.

Book Description
The Rome Statute, unlike the statutes of the International Criminal Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and for Rwanda, creates a permanent court whose dormant jurisdiction covers the territory and includes the nationals of States Parties and is universal in cases where the Security Council makes a referral. Besides, unlike the "ad hoc" tribunals, which have jurisdiction over specific crisis situations whose personal, territorial and temporal parameters have been defined in their respective statutes by the UN Security Council, in the case of the ICC it is not possible to determine a priori in which situations the ICC will be involved. As a result, the most relevant activity of the Court is the determination of those situations regarding which the dormant jurisdiction of the Court will be triggered. The book "The Triggering Procedure of the International Criminal Court" constitutes the first comprehensive analysis of the proceedings that, prior to any criminal investigation, aim to make such a fundamental determination.

Book Description
La novedad que ha supuesto para el Derecho español el reconocimiento de las personas jurídicas como responsables directas de delitos, a través de la Ley Orgánica 5/2010, de 22 de junio, necesitaba un libro como el que han escrito los profesores Banacloche Palao, Zarzalejos Nieto y Gómez-Jara Díez. Se trata de una obra que integra los aspectos sustantivos y procesales de esta expansión del Derecho penal. Carlos Gómez-Jara, Doctor en Derecho y profesor de Derecho Penal en la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, es uno de los máximos especialistas españoles y europeos en la responsabilidad penal de las personas jurídicas, tema que lleva analizando desde hace varios años con artículos y monografías pioneras que son de obligada consulta para profesionales y docentes del Derecho. Su análisis del régimen sustantivo de la reforma penal combina la experiencia comparada en esta materia con una prospección de las consecuencias que tendrá su aplicación por los Tribunales españoles. Por su parte, los profesores Banacloche Palao y Zarzalejos Nieto, Catedrático y asociado, respectivamente, de Derecho procesal en la Universidad Complutense de Madrid han abordado los aspectos procesales de la responsabilidad penal de las personas jurídicas. El legislador no ha querido regular el tratamiento procesal de este nuevo sujeto activo del Derecho penal, lo que ha llevado a los profesores Banacloche y Zarzalejos a desarrollar un sistema de justicia penal para las personas jurídicas, con una visión global del proceso penal y un enfoque práctico, que también comparte el análisis del profesor Gómez-Jara. Los tres autores, abogados en ejercicio, ofrecen en esta obra integral una guía de interpretación y aplicación de la responsabilidad penal de las personas jurídicas, de gran utilidad para jueces, fiscales y abogados, que se enfrentan, con grandes incertidumbres y no pocas lagunas legales, a una nueva dimensión del Derecho español.
