• Sommario/riassunto: This book provides a logical template to focus the debate around consent in criminal law. The work includes an examination of UK provisions, contrasting these provisions against alternative domestic jurisdictions as well as 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 consent in the context of the criminal law. The debate in relation to consent principles continues apace for academics, practitioners and within the criminal justice system. This collection will be a major source of reference for future discussion.
