Abstract

This paper analyzes the current situations which are located in the boundary of the culpability principle in the context of the limitative principles of the ius puniendi (as recognized in the continental legal tradition). For this purpose, we analyze this principle considering the actus reus and the mens rea requirements, so that it is possible to introduce (in these categories) most of the consequences that are attributed to that principle. Based on this, we analyze this principle in limit situations such as the corporate criminal responsibility, the responsibility due to the position (mainly by omission) in the international criminal law and the criminal law of corporations and other organizations; the complementary-to-punishment safety measures; and in the Youth Criminal Responsibility Act.

Culpability principle  corporate criminal liability  superior responsibility (by omission)  safety measures and punishment  youth criminal liability
