THE NEW ROMANIAN PENAL CODE IN THE EUROPEAN CONTEXT
THE NEW ROMANIAN PENAL CODE IN THE EUROPEAN CONTEXT

Summary/Abstract: Elaborating and adopting a new Penal Code represents a crucial moment in the legislative evolution of any state. The decision to move on to a new Penal Code is not simply the manifestation of the political will, but equally a corollary of the socio-economical evolution and of the doctrine and jurisprudence. The profound transformations on a political, social and economical plan which have taken place in the Romanian society for almost four decades since the adoption of the Penal Code in 1968, and especially after 1989, leave no room for doubt that adopting a new Penal Code was necessary.
