Zusammenfassung:"This book addresses key aspects of the evolving role of domestic and international prosecutors in common law and civil law systems in the twenty-first century, and the challenges posed by this evolution. This collection of chapters...takes an international, comparative approach and explores how these different legal systems have borrowed theorisations and articulations of the prosecutorial role from each other in adapting the office to changing conditions and expectations. The volume is structured around four main themes relating to the role of the modern prosecutor: the nature of the prosecutor's office, the role of the prosecutor in investigations, prosecutorial discretion and how it is exercised, and politicisation and accountability of prosecutors."--
Beschreibung:"The chapters in this book were originally presented in the form of discussion papers at a workshop on "The Evolving Role of the Prosecutor, Domestically and Internationally," held on 28-29 July 2016 at the International Institute for the Sociology of Law in Oñati, Spain."
