Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the German Penal Code and the general theories of criminal law that have shaped it. The author examines the history of the code and its theoretical foundations, tracing its evolution from its inception to the present day. The author argues that the code is based on the idea that criminal law should be applied only in cases where it is absolutely necessary to protect society, and that even then, the punishment should be no more severe than necessary to achieve that goal. The author also discusses the role of analogy and the interpretation of criminal laws, arguing that analogy should be used only in cases where the law is unclear and that the interpretation of criminal laws should be guided by the principle of lenity. This book provides a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the German Penal Code and its theoretical foundations, making it an essential resource for anyone interested in criminal law.
