Abstract
In its recent simplification and clarification of the criminal law, the Maine Criminal Law Revision Commission was also obliged to reconsider the proper breadth of the criminal sanction itself. The results of these parallel efforts are apparent throughout the Criminal Code. Those activities ordinarily considered criminal have been more precisely and comprehensively regulated, while the limits of the law controlling activities less socially damaging have been readjusted in the process of exact delineation. The Articles in this Special Issue offer an explanation and critical evaluation of the Commission's efforts.
