Procedural Rights

Many jurisdictions define a special procedural regime for people facing “criminal” charges; hence, whether a case is considered “civil” or “criminal” can have important consequences for access to a wide array of procedural rights. Conventionally, the distinction between “civil” and “criminal” law is drawn by reference to whether the law in question is intended to be punitive. This chapter explores an alternative approach. Drawing upon the capabilities approach literature, this chapter develops an account of the allocation of procedural rights on the basis of whether the law in question has the potential to impair effective access to central capability. The appeal of the capabilities approach is contrasted to Kolber’s proposal to index punishment by reference to subjective utility or preference. Although appeal to capabilities is novel in this context, well-known features of due process analysis in American constitutional law are broadly consistent with a capabilities-based approach to rights allocation.

Due Process Rights

This chapters considers themes at the intersection of criminal and constitutional law in India. It considers two perspectives that address the tension between the competing goals of protecting individual liberty and promoting the public good. The first, the ‘liberty perspective’, that emphasises individual liberty by restricting State power, whereas the second, the ‘public order perspective’, that emphasises public order by limiting individual liberty and expanding State power. The chapter illustrates the liberty perspective by focusing on discussions in the Indian Constituent Assembly on criminal due process rights, and explores how the Indian Supreme Court’s understanding of these rights differs from that of the Constituent Assembly. It demonstrates the shift in the development of constitutional criminal procedure in India from a liberty perspective to a public order perspective.
