(Source: JU)

We would like to invite you to participate in the 16th International Conference, which will take place in a hybrid form on 16th-17th September (Friday - Saturday). Participation will be possible both in a stationary form and online, using the MS TEAMS platform, to which we would encourage those of you who, for any reason, will not be able to go to Krakow personally.
The event - held by the Jagiellonian University's Student Society for State and Legal History, Chair of Polish Legal and State History and the Chair of World Legal and State History at the Faculty of Law and Administration of the Jagiellonian University - is aimed at researchers in fields of law and history - in particular at graduate students, PhD students and PhD graduates.
It is extremely difficult to overestimate the role of criminal law and its meaning for the state and for individuals. The multitude of functions and tasks, which have been transforming throughout history, have been the subject of numerous scientific studies until present day. In 2022, we celebrate the anniversaries of the legislative enactment of several important legal acts concerning both substantive and procedural criminal law. 490 years ago there was the Constitutio Criminalis Carolina (1532), 235 years ago the Constitutio Criminalis Josephina (1787), 175 years ago the Code of Main and Corrective Crimes of the Kingdom of Poland (1847), 170 years ago the Austrian Penal Code (1852), 90 years ago the Polish Penal Code of 1932, which is more commonly known as the Makarewicz Code. In 2022 we also commemorate the 25th anniversary of the comprehensive reform of Polish criminal law, which included the enactment in 1997 of: Criminal Code, Criminal Procedure Code and Criminal Executive Code. Furthermore, 175 years ago the German Code of Criminal Procedure (1877) was legislated.
We also hope that the above events will encourage a comprehensive discussion on the role and importance of criminal law in the past, present and future, as well as the presentation of the results of your academic research.
Suggested topics include the following:
1. functions and tasks of criminal law
2. criminal responsibility
3. the conception of punishment
4. types of criminal offences
5. the model of a criminal procedure
6. the evidence in a criminal procedure
7. the rules of criminal procedure
Any other research topics that are in line with the conference theme will of course also be warmly welcomed.
