LAW209: Criminal Law and Procedure |
This unit aims to develop in students a thoughtful and critical understanding of the substance of criminal law and the administration of criminal justice in contemporary Australian society. Students will critically examine principles of criminal responsibility, the substantive law relating to a range of criminal offences, and procedural aspects of the investigation, prosecution and defence of criminal matters. The unit will build on the theoretical base and analytical skills developed in the LLB foundation units. Throughout the unit, students will be required to consider and evaluate the ways that historical, social, political, philosophical and ethical factors inform the substance and operation of criminal law and procedure.
