The Greek Quadricodex

O'Shea J: The Greek Penal Code

The Greek Penal Code

Law 4619/2019

The Greek Code of Civil Procedure, an unprecedented translation of Greek Presidential Decree 503/1985, was painstakingly translated and edited over a period of several years.


The purpose of this publication is to clarify the Greek legal system for an international audience, ranging from investors and entrepreneurs to scholars, academics, and students of law and translation, as well as legal practitioners, providing them with the entire text of the law on procedure before Greek civil courts, rather than piecemeal Articles or the gist and main points. The translation of the law is accompanied by Greek-to-English and English-to-Greek glossaries of the terms encountered in the Code.


The book includes:An introduction by Dr. Panayiotis Yiannopoulos, LL.B., LL.M., J.D.
A detailed foreword by the translators on their approach, methodology and the translational issues faced and resolved.
A side-by-side translation of Presidential Decree 503/1985, including all amendments and updates until February 2023.
Two useful glossaries of the key terminology used in the above texts (Greek-English and English-Greek).




This volume is an indispensable bilingual aid for:Legal practitioners consulting clients involved in civil proceedings in Greece;
Legal departments of companies already set up in Greece;
Investors and entrepreneurs intending to incorporate a company in Greece, so that they remain abreast of developments in the field of their legal obligations;
Translators translating from and into Greek who require a high-quality reference when consulting either this specific Code or other laws citing it, as well as dependable glossaries;
Law and translation students interested in seeing a real-life application of their studies and requiring a reference volume for purposes of terminology and English legal drafting.

The Greek Code of Civil Procedure

Advanced Criminological Theory provides an extensive exploration of both foundational and contemporary theories in the field of criminology. Designed for upper-level undergraduate and beginning graduate students, the text offers a detailed examination of criminological concepts, ranging from psychological and biosocial theories to advanced applications such as cybercrime and transnational criminal networks. Emphasizing the practical application of theory, this book encourages students to critically engage with the material and comprehend its real-world implications.

Structured in fourteen thematic chapters, Advanced Criminological Theory transitions smoothly from individual-level explanations to macro-level analyses, offering insights into a variety of theoretical frameworks, such as Marxist, feminist, and intersectional criminology. At each stage, the book supports learning with real-world examples, contemporary research, critical thinking questions, policy discussions, and empirical research, aligning theoretical knowledge with its practical use in policy and reform.

Advanced Criminological Theory is well-suited for advanced courses in criminological theory, helping students deepen their understanding of crime causation and theory application. By highlighting an array of perspectives and focusing on the evolving nature of crime, this text provides the necessary tools for students to become effective scholars and practitioners in the justice system.

This book provides a systematic review of the content of children’s rights protection in the international legal system and focuses on analysing China’s compliance as a party to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. By detailing a number of authoritative laws, including the Constitution of the People’s Republic of China and the Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Protection of Minors, the book systematically comprehends the specific application and practical effects of Chinese law in the protection of children’s rights. In addition, this book focuses on the new challenges faced by children in the context of rapid economic and social development and explores in depth how China’s legal system responds to the new demands for children’s welfare and protection of their rights and interests. The importance of this book lies in the fact that it not only demonstrates the unique contribution of the Chinese legal system to the welfare and protection of children’s rights and interests, but also highlights China’s comprehensive approach to child protection. Through the implementation of the ‘six-in-one’ child protection framework of family, school, society, government, justice and the Internet, this book comprehensively covers the multidimensional environment in which children grow up, reflecting China’s systematic and synergistic approach to child protection. The issues that this book intends to address include how to effectively protect children’s rights in a rapidly changing socio-economic environment, and to provide practical guidance on child protection through comprehensive analyses of Chinese law and policy. Through comprehensive analyses of legal policies, practical cases and international experiences, this book presents readers with a three-dimensional and dynamic picture of child rights protection, which is of great academic value and practical significance. The target audience includes domestic and international legal scholars, policy makers, social workers, educators, as well as researchers and practitioners interested in child rights protection. This book not only provides an important reference for child protection work in China, but also provides valuable experience and guidance for research and practice in the field of child rights protection in countries around the world.

Practical Logic of the Plea Leniency System in China

Schriftenreihe Deutsche Strafverteidiger e.V.

Die Autorin widmet sich in ihrer Arbeit der bislang wissenschaftlich ungeklärten und höchst praxisrelevanten Frage, ob § 136a StPO auch bei entlastenden Beweisergebnissen anwendbar ist. Sie zeigt, dass ein Beweisverbot in dieser Konstellation weder verfassungsrechtlich zwingend noch kriminalpolitisch überzeugend ist und derzeit erhebliche Schutzlücken für Beschuldigten bestehen. Nach einer Analyse der Grundlagen des Strafverfahrensrechts einschließlich eines rechtsvergleichenden Blickes auf Österreich und die Schweiz, entwickelt die Autorin auf dieser Basis einen konkreten Gesetzgebungsvorschlag, der die Beschuldigtenrechte stärkt und damit die Effektivität der Strafverteidigung nachhaltig verbessert.

Die Arbeit wurde mit dem DStV-Dissertationspreis 2025 ausgezeichnet.

'... undoubtedly a first-rate companion for any undergraduate or post-graduate law course.' John Taggart, Criminal Law Review This outstanding account of modern English criminal law combines detailed exposition and analysis of the law with a careful exploration of its theoretical underpinnings. Primarily, it is written for undergraduate students of criminal law, covering all subjects taught at undergraduate level. The book's philosophical approach ensures students have a deeper understanding of the law that goes beyond a purely doctrinal knowledge. As a result, over its numerous editions, it has become required reading for criminal law courses. The 9th edition covers all statutory law including the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act 2022, the Online Safely Act 2023, and the Public Order Act 2023. Case law discussions now cover R v Iqbal (2023) and Auriol Grey (2024).

Palgrave Socio-Legal Studies

This book examines the relationship between LGBTIQ communities and law in Australia from colonial times to the present day, with a particular concentration on the last 40 years. Using a socio-legal analysis that combines legislation, case law, media reports, policy materials and government data, it traces the historical shift from criminalisation and erasure to conditional legal recognition. The book develops a critical queer perspective, analysing how sexual and gender minorities moved from being classified through the figure of the criminal ‘homosexual’ to being recognised as members of LGBTIQ communities with a status of almost legal equality. Structured historically, its chapters examine distinct phases of legal reform, governance and LGBTIQ activism. The book covers key issues in sexuality, gender, family, embodiment and sex classification, while offering an extended account of the legal questions affecting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer people. Although focused on Australia, it speaks to wider debates across post-colonial jurisdictions, Commonwealth countries and the United States. It will be of interest to students and academics in socio-legal studies, queer legal theory, sexuality and gender studies, law reform, and LGBTIQ politics and activism.Allen George
 is Lecturer in Socio-Legal Studies at the University of Sydney, Australia, where he has lectured since 2009. His research focuses on law, sexuality, gender and LGBTIQ communities. He has also taught sociology and criminology at the University of Newcastle.

Key Ideas in Law

This book explores the law, philosophy, and wider implications of that brief but highly consequential moment when a judge imposes sentence on a convicted offender. Sentencing is one of the most contested aspects of contemporary criminal justice. It is an important field of study, both as an instance of coercive state power over the citizen and as the point at which the statutory purposes of punishment are given public expression. Focusing on England and Wales, with occasional comparative reference to sentencing practice around the world, topics include the legal and ethical implications of pleading guilty, the origin and development of sentencing guidelines, and the 'ordinary' language in which the sentence itself must be pronounced in open court. Tensions arise over the appropriate treatment of cohorts including the young, racialised, mentally disordered, and dangerous, and the disparate outcomes such treatment can generate.At a time of unprecedented crisis - from the phenomenon of 'sentence inflation' 50 years in the making, to the criminal court backlog, to an overcrowded prison estate - the book concludes with an appraisal and critique of the Sentencing Act 2026. The Act was pitched as a once-in-a-generation attempt at substantive justice reform, but its precise impact remains to be seen. Key Features · Offers an original account of a field in transition, equipping readers with a rich and robust evidence base · Reconciles classical theories of punishment with modern case law and sentencing practice · Comparative insights provide perspective and distance, enabling readers to form their own views on a complex field
