Description

Criminal Sociology, written by Italian criminologist Enrico Ferri in the late 19th century, is a seminal work that integrates sociology with the study of criminal behavior. Ferri challenges the prevailing biological determinism of his time, proposing that criminality arises from a complex interplay of social, environmental, and psychological factors. By emphasizing the social context of crime, he shifts the focus from the individual to the societal structures that shape criminal behavior.The book explores various themes, including the impact of poverty, education, and culture on crime rates. Ferri also champions the idea of social reform as a means to reduce crime, advocating for preventive measures rather than punitive approaches. His empirical research and case studies serve to illustrate the correlation between social conditions and criminal acts.Criminal Sociology is a groundbreaking text that laid the foundation for modern criminological theory, making it essential reading for scholars and practitioners interested in the social dimensions of crime.
