ĐỒNG PHẠM TRONG VỤ ÁN DO PHÁP NHÂN THỰC HIỆN

Abstract

In addressing the issue of the criminal responsibility of legal entities, twoprimary scientific viewpoints currently exist. The first holds that a legal entity is merelythe subject of criminal responsibility but not the subject of a crime. The second, moretraditional viewpoint, asserts that a legal entity, like an individual, is both the subject ofa crime and the subject of criminal responsibility. Depending on the viewpoint andapproach adopted, the issue of complicity in cases where a legal entity commits a crimemay lead to varying legal consequences. Within the scope of this article, the author doesnot seek to evaluate the correctness of these scientific viewpoints but instead highlightsthe legal issues that arise from each perspective.
