By criminalizing various behaviours, the state sets boundaries on what we can and cannot do. And the criminal law is in many ways unique in the harshness of its sanctions. But traditional criminal law theory has for too long focussed on the questions, \"what is a crime?\" and \"what is the justification of punishment?\" The significance of the criminal law extends beyond these questions; indeed, critical philosophical questions underlie all aspects of the criminal justice system. The criminal law engages us not just as offenders or potential offenders, but also as victims, suspects, judges and jurors, prosecutors and defenders--and as citizens. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe authors in this volume go beyond traditional questions to challenge our conventional understandings of the criminal law. In doing so, they draw from a number of disciplines including philosophy, history, and social science.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChad Flanders is Associate Professor of Law at Saint Louis University School of Law. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eZachary Hoskins is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of Nottingham. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eContributors: \u003cbr\u003eChristopher Bennett, Senior Lecturer in Philosophy, University of Sheffield; Vincent Chiao, Assistant Professor of Law, University of Toronto; Jovana Davidovic, Assistant Professor of Philosophy, University of Iowa; R.
