Le droit pénal ou droit criminel est la branche du droit qui détermine des comportements antisociaux (les infractions), et prévoit la réaction de la société envers ces comportements, le plus souvent sous forme d'une peine pénale.	Penal law, or criminal law, is the branch of law that determines antisocial conducts (infractions), and provides society's response towards these conducts, most often in the form of a criminal sanction.
Le droit pénal concerne le rapport entre la société en général et un individu.	Criminal law concerns the relation between society and an individual.
Il est souvent opposé au droit civil, qui concerne les rapports entre deux personnes morales ou physiques.	It is often contrasted to civil law, which concerns the relations between two legal or physical persons.
Il s'articule avec les règles de procédure pénale, qui fixent le cadre juridique que doivent respecter l'enquête, la poursuite et le jugement visant une personne soupçonnée d'avoir commis une infraction.	It is articulated with the rules of criminal procedure, which set the legal framework that must be followed by the investigation, the prosecution, and the trial targeting a person suspected to have committed an infraction.
D'un point de vue juridique, le droit pénal est fréquemment divisé en deux grands ensembles :	From a legal point of view, criminal law is frequently divided in two great sets:
Le droit pénal général, qui précise les conditions générales d'incrimination et de fixation des peines, réservées au pouvoir législatif ou réglementaire.	General criminal law, which specifies general conditions of incrimination and sentencing, reserved to the legislative power.
Le droit pénal spécial, qui établit un catalogue de comportements incriminés : les infractions.	Specific criminal law, which builds a catalog of criminal conducts: infractions.
