- Title
DEL PREMIO DE LA FELONÍA EN LA HISTORIA JURÍDICA Y EL DERECHO PENAL CONTEMPORÁNEO.
- Authors
Guzmán DaLbora, José Luis
- Abstract
No matter how strange it might seem, the reward for treachery takes part of a long tradition in the Criminal Law. If disloyalty might be considered an offence or might even aggravate criminal responsibility, ¿how is it possible to reward the traitor through legal mechanisms, such a mitigating or even exonerating circumstances? This practice that reappeared in the current legal systems, represents the predominance of a raw policy and of an authoritarian Criminal Law over the rights of the citizens and it certainly weakens the values of the legal system.
