| Summary: |
Given the continuous and global expansion of criminal law, this paper presents the reasons
contributing to this, demonstrates the most relevant dogmatic and political criminal problems, and
proposes measures to avoid the violation of basic principles on criminal law and the �relaxation�
of constitutional guarantees, bothby the legislatorin creating the law and the judgeinits application.
Special attention is paid to the rights of defense, in particular the reversal of the burden of proof,
through biased interpretations or conceptions on institutes of the theory of crimeas the mens reaor
the imputation of the actus reus. The proposals aim to respect the principles of proportionality, harm
fulness and Double Jeopardy, especially through there quirement that the criminal law rule effectively
fulfi lls its function of protecting the legally-protected right and, in the specifi c case, the harm fulness of
this legally-protected right is proved. |
