21810525 - CRIME, DEVIANCE, AND CORRUPTION

The course aims to provide basic knowledge of the socio-legal phenomenon of deviance and crime by looking at a series of theories that will be related to macro-concepts such as: the ideology of social defence, the crisis of the rule of law, justicialism as a political and media phenomenon, the guarantee and protection of fundamental rights, the meaning of punishment. The course will then analyse the phenomenon of “white collar crime” and corruption, both in politics and in the Public Administration. Finally, the course also aims to understand the functioning of the penitentiary institution and administration.

Programme

The course aims to provide useful tools to understand the phenomenon of deviance, crime and punishment in Western societies through the most important theories of international and Italian legal-criminal sociology.
In the first module, we will work on the Liberal School of Criminal law, on the ideology of social defence, on psychoanalytic theories of crime, on deviance and regulatory voids, on the "labelling approach", on the sociology of conflicts in reference to the criminal phenomena, the political corruption and the crime of the "white collars", on the prison and the social marginality, on the prospect of the school of Critical criminology.
