Law, Crime and Justice

The process that leads to the development of a centralised government is known as the state formation. This subject examines the formation and nature of the state and its relation to civil society. When studying this subject you will cover: state-making and war; the welfare state; the legitimation of power; the nature of rule and governance; terrorism; and the role of social groups, movements and parties. You will also explore the major perspectives in political sociology, as well as key perspectives in classical sociology.

The State, Power and Violence

This subject provides you with a rigorous overview of harmonisation of domestic crimes and criminal procedures as well as international crimes and criminal procedures. The particular focus on harmonised crimes, such as terrorism and related proceedings, encourages critical analysis of a range of international criminal law concepts and principles. You will also develop your understanding of specific supranational crimes, such as crimes against humanity, aggression, war crimes and related proceedings, as well as consider the fundamentals of the international law of war.

International Criminal Law

This subject examines the history and theory behind the use of emergency legal powers in a time of crisis. We explore how liberal democracies balance responding to a public emergency, such as war, civil unrest, or a health crisis while at the same time acting within the rule of law. We begin by looking at the theory of emergency and the role which the Weimar constitution&#39;s emergency provisions played in the rise of the Nazis. We then look to the Australian experience of emergency – dealing with wartime threats, political extremism, natural disasters and pandemics – and ask how this fits within the broader theory of emergency law and politics.
