How are the same criminal cases judged under different European criminal law systems?

In this book, five challenging Dutch criminal cases and accompanying Supreme Court judgments form both the starting point and the central steppingstone of a description and comparative analysis of the law on criminal participation in five prominent European countries.

All cases focus on joint perpetration, criminal aiding, or both, and their outcomes have provoked (strong) debates among legal scholars and practitioners in the Netherlands.

Then, criminal law experts from France, Germany, Austria and Italy each present their nation’s law on joint perpetration and criminal assistance, and their analyses of the five cases.
