Modern endangerment offences have crucially changed the view on criminal law, which is in turn the deciding factor why author is not satisfied with the approach to the problem only through the special part of criminal law (normally attached to technological progress). This is the reason, why author investigates endangerment offences and genesis of terms danger and endangerment in Slovenian criminal law dogmatics which is crucially important for further theoretical development and overall understanding of this type of offences. Hand in hand with this preoccupation he paves the way towards recognising key differences between different categories concerning danger and endangerment in the concept of endangerment offences. To achieve this goal, he organizes conceptual systematic approach under which the successful differentiation and legitimation (especially important in abstract endangerment offences) is eventually possible in the future. After the presentation of historical evolution of chosen problematics in the field of Slovenian criminal law, he then presents the point of view from Dutch and common-law theory and calls for further debate.
