TWO VIEWS OF MURDER
Abstract
This article analyses approaches to criticism and reform of the law of murder. It assesses the impact of the mens rea problem and the mandatory sentence of life imprisonment on the definition of the crime and on its place in homicide law. Relevant proposals in the Law Reform Commission of Canada's Working Paper on Homicide are considered and an alternative approach to reform is indicated.Keywords:
