    Area of Science:

    • Criminology
    • Sociology
    • Political Science

    Context:

    • Distinguishes between conventional crimes (person, property, public order offenses) and unconventional crimes (white-collar, state-sanctioned, and transnational offenses).
    • Highlights that many unconventional crimes, despite legal definitions, often go unpunished.
    • Notes the inadequacy of traditional offender-centric explanations for unconventional crime.

    Purpose:

    • To argue for a paradigm shift in criminology, moving from individualistic explanations to a sociopolitical understanding of crime.
    • To emphasize the need for new approaches to study and address unconventional crime.
    • To assert that criminology and criminal justice can no longer maintain scientific neutrality.

    Summary:

    • Conventional criminology fails by treating crime as a collection of individually explainable offenses, neglecting its sociopolitical dimensions.

  • Unconventional crimes, including corruption, financial fraud, and state-level offenses, require a broader analytical framework.
  • A sociopolitical perspective is essential for criminology to remain relevant and effectively address the full spectrum of criminal activity.

    • Impact:

    • Suggests that a sociopolitical approach to criminology will lead to more effective strategies for crime prevention and justice.
    • Implies that confronting unconventional crime will necessitate challenging established power structures and political interests.
    • Calls for a more engaged and less neutral stance from scientific and justice systems when dealing with complex criminal phenomena.
