During the 1978 conference of the Yugoslav Association for Criminal Law and Criminology, the author conducted an inquiry about the sentencing policy of Yugoslav courts.
Abstract
Questions discussed included to what extent the existing sentencing policy is adequate, whether the hypotheses about sentencing disparity generally and particularly concerning criminal offenses are well founded, and if hypotheses about the justification/nonjustification of possible discrepancies in penal sanctions are valid. Findings and conclusions are provided. Tables and footnotes are included. (Author abstract modified)
