una aproximación al sistemade imputación subjetiva enel derecho penal anglosajón

Abstract

As a general rule, the Anglo-American legal systems of criminal law stipulate a culpable state of mind (mens rea). The mens rea of most criminal offences are: intent or purposely (which is the mostculpable mental state), knowledge, recklessness, and criminal negligence. In the European legal system of criminal law, intention is a label used not only for cases of purposely or knowledge; it's also includes cases of what the Anglo-American legal systems of criminal law would call recklessness. After a review of the common-law concept of culpability, this research shows the concept of intention andthe others state of mind categories.
