Course description

This course involves an advanced examination of criminal law and procedure, as well as several interrelated facets of criminology. It goes beyond the compulsory criminal law component of the LLB and places a greater focus on the causes of crime, the responses of criminal justice agencies, and justifications and critiques of criminalisation. It also introduces students to more complex aspects of substantive criminal law, including transnational crime and corporate liability. This course seeks to develop students' critical reasoning skills by encouraging them to reflect on the broader role of criminal law in society, its proper limits, and its practical operation.
