Criminal Humanities & Forensic Semiotics

This series publishes monographs, anthologies, annotated literary editions, and comparative studies that critically engage the humanities as a locus for the study of criminal offending, criminal investigation, deviance, penology, and deterrence, as well as the epistemology of justice. We are especially interested in submissions with a strong interdisciplinary orientation and which lie at the crossroads of theory and practice. In other words, this series is foremost concerned with using artistic, literary, and multimedia texts, situations, and other products of the strictly non-investigative world as vehicles for exploring long-standing social and procedural issues of interest to both academia and the general public. By engaging a wide readership encompassing both scholars and practitioners, it is the intent of this series to breathe new life into the humanities and cultural studies, not to further alienate or obfuscate the scholarship done in these disciplines. For this reason, collaborations between authors representing academic institutions and those working in both private and public knowledge sectors, including government and specialized areas of law enforcement, are encouraged to collaborate with respect to this project. The series will publish studies and anthologies that explore the connection between fictional writing, movies, music, traditional electronic media, the Internet, and other domains of popular culture and how they have influenced the perception of crime and criminality. The synergy that exists between real crime (reality) and imagined criminality as manifesting itself through representations in writing and media is the primary focus of the series. We also welcome submissions that draw on any number of semiotic, linguistic, and comparative literature traditions, particularly those espousing new approaches to these fields and which allow key concepts to be unpacked within the framework of the criminal justice system, the forensic sciences, or other professions or institutions that serve the public interest.

Intradisziplinäre Forschung zur Compliance

ISSN: 2196-9795

Gegenstand dieser Schriftenreihe sind wirtschaftsrechtliche Forschungsarbeiten, die in wissenschaftlicher Hinsicht intradisziplinär angelegt und auf praxisrelevante Fragestellungen der „Compliance“ ausgerichtet sind. Es werden Problemkomplexe aus dem Blickwinkel verschiedener juristischer Teildisziplinen miteinander abgeglichen, um intradisziplinäre Wertungsunterschiede aufzudecken und diese – soweit möglich – aufzulösen. Diese Erkenntnisinteresse trägt die Einbindung der Rechtspraxis in den Entstehungsprozess der Arbeiten in besonderer Weise Rechnung. Der regelmäßige Austausch mit Rechtspraktikern soll gewährleisten, dass vor allem praktisch relevante Frage aufgegriffen werden, die noch keine Klärung durch Rechtsprechung und Wissenschaft erfahren haben.
