Derechos Humanos y Derecho Penal. Validez de las viejas respuestas frente a las nuevas cuestiones

Abstract

In the postmodern society we meet on one hand with a Penal Law that seeks, to avoid the appearance of new risks, implicit in the technological advances, and for the other one, it pursues author’s condition, of the wickedness and of the enemies of the classification. An authoritarian transformation of the Law taken place, where the expansion, the crisis and the exceptional legislative go closely united, perceiving a restriction of the human rights. Before this situation it is sought to meditate on the Penal Law of the future, framed inside the courses traced by the Penal old Law, although always adapted to the necessities of the present changing.
