AIDP | Association Internationale De Droit Pénal

The AIDP has launched a Call for Papers for the International Review of Penal Law (RIDP) volume on "Artificial Intellingence, big data and automated decision-making in criminal justice". Please refer to the attached Call for Papers for further information.

It is with deep sadness that I share with you the passing of Prof. Dr. Alfonso Stile (1941-2021) due to a long illness. His legacy to the Siracusa Institute and to the AIDP is enormous. The fact that he was honorary vice-president of both organisations proves the appraisal for his longstanding contribution, commitment and leadership.  Alfonso Stile was active in the Board of Directors of the AIDP since the 1970’s. In Italy, he also built up a strong national AIDP group and was always interested in the younger generations.

A todos nuestros grupos nacionales y miembros, afiliados y amigos:

2020 ha sido un año desafiante y difícil para la mayoría de nosotros. Nuestra vida profesional y personal se ha vuelto virtual en gran medida.

The 2021 annual meetings of the AIDP (COEX, CODIR, COSCI, COREV) will take place on December 3 and 4, 2021 in Siracusa, Italy. They will be hosted by the Siracusa International Institute for Criminal Justice and Human Rights. Please click here for the full schedule:

Dear Members, Dear Friends,

As you already know, our annual meetings scheduled for 25 and 26 September 2020 were supposed to take place physically in Paris with virtual participation of those who cannot come.

On the 16th and 17th of July, the Spanish and Portuguese national groups of the AIDP organized in Cadiz a common conference on criminal policy. The activity did consist of a conference  on actual topics under legislative revision, such as  life time imprisonment, offences against sexual liberty,  fundamental rights and criminal justice,  euthanasia and the reform of the Spanish criminal procedure.

Queridos miembros, queridos amigos:

Como es sabido, nuestra reunión anual tradicionalmente celebrada en el mes de Junio en París, ha  tenido que ser pospuesta a los días 25 y 26 de Septiembre de 2020.

El viernes, 5 de junio de 2020, el Comité ejecutivo de la AIDP se ha reunido por la primera vez en su historia de manera virtual para abordar los asuntos del orden de día. Han participado 17 miembros del Comité ejecutivo procedentes del mundo entero: China, Japón, Brasil, Estados Unidos de América, España, Italia, Argentina, Luxemburgo, Bélgica, Suecia, Egipto, Francia y Croacia.
