Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire

The course is oriented to provide students a general overview on the history of criminology, and to acquire the main concepts of criminological theories. The goal is to give professional knowledge and empirical tools to both those who wish to work in the area of deviance and social control (such as police, prison and probation officers, besides the usual careers in law) and those who intend to go on to an academic specialization in criminal law and socio-criminological research. The course focuses on processes, strategies, institutions and theories of deviance, social control and punishment, as these have been developing in Europe and the United States. On such historical and conceptual backdrop, the main goal is then to proceed to a reconstruction of the main theories in the sociology of deviance and criminology, and in the sociology of punishment. Specific instances of criminological research will also be discussed.
