Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research about the punishment of corporations has gotten some results in each field of the criminal law, the criminal procedure law and the sanction. As the result in the criminal law, that is the substantive law, the punishment of corporations is short of theoretical justification of objective assignment (objektive Zurechnung). It comes to lack of autonomy in any corporation as a necessary condition of punishment. Therefore sanctions against corporation also loses the justification. As the result in the criminal procedure law the punishment of corporation has also theoretical problems especially concerning the protection of the right of criminal defendants, for example, self-incrimination.
