Criminal Law Theory - A New Norwegian Approach
Criminal Law Theory – A New Norwegian Approach is an attempt to move the Norwegian criminal law and criminal law science forwards in a more theoretical direction than what has been the traditional approach. The programme is carried out at the Faculty of Law, and is closely connected to the research group in criminal law. The programme is currently composed of three post.doc. positions, of which the first two positions have already been filled. These two projects, concerning respectively the structure of the general part of the criminal law and the conceptual challenges for the criminal law system due to the internationalisation of criminal law, are further described below. The third project is currently being filled. The programme is, due to further financing, to be expanded. Interest in the programme, ideas and ambitions of future projects, including post.doc. projects, ph.d. projects and other research projects, are welcomed and may be considered as part of future applications concerning funding, on behalf of the programme. Due to the programme's ambition of engaging the Norwegian criminal law science in the international discussion, the programme is carried out in English.

Europe’s Harmonic Outpost
When it comes down to the Law, Norwegians are more concerned with the common good than their fellow Europeans. But are Norwegians about to become as focused on their rights as the rest of Europe?

Not a private matter
Today, domestic violence is considered a crime. The state and the legal system increasingly intervene in matters previously considered to be private.

Morality Above Penalty
The stated goal of Criminal Law is to punish the offender. But it is unfortunate that we know so little about the origins and workings of this piece of legislation.
