Bergelson on Duress

Wednesday, August 29, 2018

 

This article engages with Joshua Dressler's theory of duress and develops an alternative account of that defense. My disagreement with Dressler involves four issues: 

1. the character of the defense of duress; 

2. the meaning of duress; 

3. the effect of duress; and 

4. the need for this defense in criminal law.
