This text concentrates on the "how and why" of criminal law, how and why does behaviour become, or stop, being criminal? Issues considered include fraud, squatting, sexual offences and drug use.
Frontiers of Criminality provides original insights into why and how forms of behaviour become, or stop being criminal. As criminal law is being seen as increasingly contextual, students of the subject will benefit from the book's exploration of how broad social and policy considerations underlie the criminalisation and decriminalisation of certain types of behaviour.
