| Title | Criminal Sociology |
| Summary | "Criminal Sociology" by Enrico Ferri is a scientific publication written during the late 19th century. The work explores the complexities of criminality, emphasizing the importance of understanding both the individual and societal factors that contribute to crime. It argues that effective solutions to crime must address underlying causes rather than solely relying on punitive measures. The opening of "Criminal Sociology" presents a preface that contextualizes Ferri's exploration of crime within the framework of social pathology and anthropology. It critiques the superficial interpretations of criminal statistics, suggesting that a decline in prison populations does not necessarily indicate a decrease in crime. Ferri advocates for a more thorough examination of the individual conditions and broader social influences that lead to criminal behavior. This introductory portion sets the stage for a detailed analysis of criminal anthropology, psychology, and sociology, which will follow in subsequent chapters.
