It also shows how much criminal law theory depends on, and is enriched by, a serious engagement with deeper issues in moral and political philosophy (which is one reason why the collection should interest moral and political philosophers even if they are not directly interested in criminal law). The collection is made yet more valuable by the addition of a substantial 'Reply to Critics' Criminal law,Justification (Law),Criminal liability,Luật biện hộ,Luật hình sự Philosophy,Triết lý Tuyến Trung tâm Học liệu Trường Đại học Cần Thơ
