TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - Criminal responsibility in drunkenness JO - Psychiatria Hungarica : A Magyar Pszichiátriai Társaság tudományos folyóirata A1 - Egedi, Anita SP - 30 EP - 44 VL - 21 IS - 1 N2 - Surveying government policies and programmes related to drinking problems and the means of controlling drinking behavior apart from criminal law, the author reaches the conclusion that significant resources are needed for the implementation of these policies. Regarding the state of unconscious drunkenness, the author is of the opinion that there are no serious reasons to justify holding a person criminally responsible for an action committed in a "non compos" state due to drunkenness. However, if a person becomes drunk through his own fault, he creates a situation of serious risk, which justifies holding the person responsible. The author believes that the 1948 state of affairs should have been adapted to the requirements of crime policy.
