Abstract:
The chosen topic sets forward the interest of an interdisciplinary approach,
but also an innovating vision on the intersection of two law branches. We propose
the analysis of criminal law constitutionalization due to the general trend in
which criminal law is equally subscribed, namely that of conventionalization and
constitutionalization of law. Moreover, the study of the two law branches is relevant
given the highly intimate connections between them, through rendering more
effective the protection of fundamental rights and liberties.
The problem or hypothesis raised is” What is the starting point and how does
theprocess of constitutionalization of the criminal law acts/functions?”, implicitly
admitting the existence of such a phenomenon, highlighting the relations between
criminal law and the Constitution, respectively of the means of constitutionalization
and the effects of this phenomenon.
