Synopsis
Excerpt from Criminology
At the National Conference of Criminal Law and Criminology, held in Chicago, at Northwestern University, in June, 1909, the American Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology was organized; and, as a part of its work, the following resolution was passed:
"Whereas, it is exceedingly desirable that important treatises on criminology in foreign languages be made readily accessible in the English language, Resolved, that the president appoint a committee of five with power to select such treatises as in their judgment should be translated, and to arrange for their publication."
The Committee appointed under this Resolution has made careful investigation of the literature of the subject, and has consulted by frequent correspondence. It has selected several works from among the mass of material. It has arranged with publisher, with authors, and with translators, for the immediate undertaking and rapid progress of the task. It realizes the necessity of educating the professions and the public by the wide diffusion of information on this subject. It desires here to explain the considerations which have moved it in seeking to select the treatises best adapted to the purpose.
For the community at large, it is important to recognize that criminal science is a larger thing than criminal law. The legal profession in particular has a duty to familiarize itself with the principles of that science, as the sole means for intelligent and systematic improvement of the criminal law.

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book's main focus is on the theoretical framework and principles surrounding crime and criminals. The author, an authority on criminology, boldly challenges and debunks many common and outdated views on criminal law which fail to protect society or reform criminals. Instead, he suggests a new approach grounded in scientific observation. This approach redefines the concept of natural crime, posits that criminals exhibit specific anomalies, and argues that societal influences play a role in criminal behavior. The author also proposes a more rational system of punishment that considers the individual circumstances and motivations of the offender, advocating for rehabilitation over retribution. Significant for its ideas on criminal justice reform, this book encourages a shift from abstract legal notions to an adaptable, scientific, and humane approach to crime and punishment. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
