Classifications

In this series of seminars students will learn the basis of British law, what it is and in broad terms, how it functions. Students will learn in detail what terms like public and private and criminal and civil actually mean, and how they are the same and different. They will learn where these labels come from and how we use them as well as understand how the British legal system is structured.

Criminal Liability

They will learn how to recognize them in different types of crimes.
