About this book
This book intends to contribute to the consolidation of the new approach to lawmaking that has taken place in the last 20 years in legal philosophy and legal theory, spreading to other legal fields, especially criminal law. This new legislation science focusing on criminal problems has triggered a growing interest in the field, a dynamic which has led to a long-needed convergence of disciplines such as administrative law, criminal law, criminology, political science, sociology and, of course, legal philosophy to contribute to a more rational decision-making process for the construct of criminal laws.
With the intention to continue on with the building of a solid “Criminal Legislation Science”, this work presents scholars, lawmakers and students various emblematic approaches to enrich the discussion about different and promising tools and theoretical frameworks.

About the editor
Jose Becerra Muñoz is assistant professor in the Criminal Law Department and researcher at the Institute of Criminology (both at the University of Malaga, Spain). His interest in criminal legislation creation and evaluation in the last 10 years led him to co-found and coordinate two working groups on criminal law-making policy, both at Spanish and European level. His aim is to find new ways to contribute from an interdisciplinary perspective to the achievement of higher standards in criminal law-making processes, bringing together a set of disciplines able to help us to better understand the features of such processes and to search for new legislation management techniques.
