Self-defence Against Honour and Reputation Criminal Offenses
Tomislav Kos
Sažetak
Self-defense is one of the oldest forms of self-help and, as such, is often the object of doctrinal research. It is generally considered that an attack on any legally protected good gives the right to self-defense. Proportionality between attacked protected good and injured protected good is not required. Although the Croatian legislation, in accordance with modern doctrine, accepts the theory of equality of human rights (according to which they cannot be graded for their intensitv, but it is necessary to concretly assess prevalence of interest in each particular case when they come in collision), it is still sometimes considered that honour and reputation cannot be the object of self-defense. The aim of this work is to prove the existence of the self-defense in case when the honour and reputation are attacked, as well as to work out in detail the assumptions under which it is applicable within the Croatian criminal justice system.
