Vă prezentăm, în continuare, preambulul în limba engleză al domnului prof. Mircea Duțu, președintele comisiei organizatorice:

Environmental criminality is becoming more and more important, both at a national and international level, and has already reached a fourth position amongst international illicit activities, after drug trafficking, counterfeiting, and human trafficking.

Its object constitute of both the human being and their living environment, and/or the environment itself, as a general support for all life. Stating and asserting an adequate and efficient criminal law response imply a significant creative effort, and also the integration of the particularities of the new field, in the context of criminal law.

Criminal protection of the environment finds itself in the midst a gradual effort, where criminal law stands as a final solution, adequate, proportional to the present interests, to the gravity of the damage or the guilt of the offenders; and such a reasoning involves a double conjoint movement: on the one hand, of adapting and harmonizing internal legal systems, and on the other hand, of internationalizing criminal protection of the environment, both resulting in criminal environmental law.

By taking into account, amongst its priority scientific concerns, environmental protection by means of criminal law, the AIDP -IACL continues its tradition, reacts to the new social major challenges, i.e. the environmental and ecological imperative, thus consolidating the future status of criminal law.

Held in Bucharest, Romania, between 18 and 20 May 2016, in collaboration with the Institute for Legal Research o f the Romanian Academy and the Ecological University of Bucharest, the World Conference: The Protection of the Environment through Criminal Law offers the possibility of a global debate on an issue of maximum importance and actuality.
