About this book series

This book series focuses on criminal justice from multiple perspectives. In particular, it addresses three main areas:

  • Comparative issues, including historical ones, in order to highlight the common roots of criminal justice in common and civil law systems, both past and present.
  • European issues, in order to raise awareness of the link between national and transnational levels, in the perspective of the European Union law and the European Convention on Human Rights law, in the area of criminal justice, namely focusing on the protection of fundamental rights and on judicial and police cooperation.
  • International issues, namely those related to the functioning of the International Criminal Court and of the other international criminal tribunals, but also in regard to international human rights courts.

The book series addresses the phenomenon of criminal justice with a particular, but not exclusive, focus on procedural aspects, from a multidisciplinary perspective – an essential approach in today’s globalized world.
It provides academic readers with authoritative and timely debates on the emerging issues of criminal justice, and also offers judges and lawyers useful indications and suggestions.
