- "bad" political decisions that result in a waste of taxpayers' money
- corruption and conflicts of interest in political decision-making
- immunities and procedural obstacles to the effective prosecution of politicians
- abuse of criminal law and criminal proceedings in the political arena
- criminal liability for decisions taken in situations of state emergency
- the role of criminal law in public opinion.
