Summary
Belief in witchcraft and magic has presented German criminal law with something of a challenge since the offence of sorcery was abolished. Are such practices punishable in an enlightened society? Can they even be judged by rational criminal law standards? Verena Dorn-Haag traces the issue's dogmatic-historical development and takes a critical look at how it is currently dealt with.
