Criminal Law Theory - A New Norwegian Approach

Criminal Law Theory – A New Norwegian Approach is an attempt to move the Norwegian criminal law and criminal law science forwards in a more theoretical direction than what has been the traditional approach.

Hovedinnhold

The programme is carried out at the Faculty of Law, and is closely connected to the research group in criminal law.

The programme is currently composed of three post.doc. positions. These three projects are concerning respectively the structure of the conception of crime as a core part of the general part of the criminal law, the conceptual challenges for the criminal law system due to the internationalisation of criminal law, and a justice framework for the criminal procedure (follow links).

The programme is, due to further financing, to be expanded. Interest in the programme, ideas and ambitions of future projects, including post.doc. projects, ph.d. projects and other research projects, are welcomed and may be considered as part of future applications concerning funding, on behalf of the programme.

Due to the programme's ambition of engaging the Norwegian criminal law science in the international discussion, the programme is carried out in English.
