This document provides a comprehensive overview of the field of criminology, its core concepts, its distinction from criminal justice, and its relationship with the legal system. Criminology is defined as the scientific study of criminal behavior, focusing on the processes of making laws, breaking laws, and society's reaction to law-breaking. It is distinct from criminal justice, which studies the agencies of social control such as police, courts, and corrections.
Key subfields within criminology include crime measurement, socio-legal studies, theory construction, the study of criminal behavior systems, penology, and victimology. Criminologists analyze crime through several theoretical lenses, including the consensus, conflict, and interactionist views, which culminate in an integrated definition of crime as a violation of a legal code created by those in power.
The document further explores the historical evolution and contemporary structure of criminal law, from the Code of Hammurabi to modern common law principles like actus reus (the act) and mens rea (the intent). It outlines the primary functions of substantive criminal law and details the types of criminal defenses. Finally, it addresses the critical ethical considerations that guide criminological research, focusing on the selection of research topics and subjects, as well as the methods used for study.
