Cooperation of Several Persons in Committing a Criminal Act – A Challenge to Criminal Law

In this short presentation the book of Professor Matjaž Ambrož, PhD, "Storilstvo in udeležba v kazenskem pravu” (Perpetration and Complicity in Criminal Law), in which the author analyses the problems of participation of numerous actors in a crime, is reviewed. The book is comprised of two parts: the first part deals with criminal perpetration, and the second part with criminal complicity. Different theoretical approaches are presented and critically evaluated by Professor Ambrož. The relevant case law on the subject is pointed out. For all those reasons the book is an important contribution to the theory of criminal law. The author is able to present and analyse complex theoretical questions in an interesting and comprehensible way, while maintaining a high theoretical consistency.
