An essential textbook exploring the symbiotic relationship between Criminology and Penology, analyzing the drivers of criminal behavior and the evolution of punitive treatment.
This book examines the dual pillars of criminal science: Criminology and Penology. The first section explores scientific theories interpreting criminal phenomena and the multi-dimensional factors—biological, social, and economic—that drive crime. The second section focuses on the science of punishment, investigating criminal sanctions and punitive treatments designed for rehabilitation. The text highlights how effective punishment relies on a deep understanding of criminal motives, aiming for social reintegration and the reduction of recidivism.
