This volume presents a leading contribution to the substantive arena relating to homicide in the criminal law. In broad terms, the ambit of homicide standardisations in extant law is contestable and opaque. Homicide in Criminal Law provides a logical template to focus the debate.

The overall concept addresses three specific elements within this arena, embracing an overarching synergy between them. This edifice engages in an examination of UK provisions and contrasts these provisions against alternative domestic jurisdictions. It also includes comparative contributions addressing a particularised research grid for content. The comparative chapters provide a wider background of how other legal systems treat a variety of specialised issues relating to homicide in the context of the criminal law.

The debate in relation to homicide continues apace for academics, practitioners, and within the criminal justice system. Having expert descriptions of the wider issues surrounding the particular discussion and of other legal systemsโ€™ approaches serves to stimulate and inform that debate. This collection will be a major source of reference for future discussion.
