More information about Danny Jol

Danny Jol has been employed as a lecturer in criminal law and criminal procedure and as a PhD candidate by the Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology of Leiden University since 2017. He obtained his LL.M. from Leiden University, with dual specializiation, in criminal and civil law.

Teaching

From 2010 on, he has worked as a lecturer in criminal law and criminal procedure at the Willem Pompe Institute for Criminal Law and Criminology of Utrecht University (2010-2012, 2016-2017) and the Institute for Criminal Law and Criminology of Leiden University (2012-2016, 2017-…). He has also been involved as a lecturer in the History of European Public Law Course (with a focus on the history of constitutional law, criminal law and criminal procedure), taught at the Institute for the Interdisciplinary Study of the Law (Department of Legal History) of Leiden University (2013-2014). As a lecturer in criminal law and criminal procedure, he teaches various courses in those fields.

Research

Danny Jol is writing a PhD thesis about criminal procedure in colonial Indonesia (the Netherlands Indies), under the (working) title ‘Tusschen Westersche leuzen en Oostersche mogelijkheden. Rechtsbescherming in het Nederlands-Indische strafproces ten tijde van de herziening van het strafprocesrecht voor niet-Europeanen in 1941’ (‘Between Western Slogans and Eastern Possibilities. Legal Protection in the Netherlands Indies’ Criminal Procedure at the Time of the Reform of the Criminal Procedure for Non-Europeans in 1941’). His research focusses on the question to what extent the reform of criminal procedure for non-Europeans in 1941 (which, among other things, led to the Herziene Inlandsch Reglement (HIR)) contributed to the improvement of the protection by law (rechtsbescherming) offered to non-Europeans by the Netherlands Indies’ criminal procedure. To answer this question, in particular the landraad investigation and (pre-)trial proceedings for non-Europeans are compared to the the raad van justitie investigation and (pre-)trial proceedings for Europeans.

He plans further research on criminal law and criminal procedure in Netherlands New Guinea (1949-1962) and on the process of pardoning of persons sentenced to death by the Court of St. George Delmina (or St. George d’Elmina). This Court was seated and adjudicated in the terrritories of the Dutch possessions on the Coast of Guinea (or the (Dutch) Gold Coast, nowadays Ghana), in the period between 1848-1870.
