The text traces in a linear and clear way the studies and the most interesting theories, Italian and foreign, on the issue of crime. This also allows new generations and young students to have at their fingertips a historical and theoretical framework easily assimilated and essential to address and try to solve, with the help of law, the problems caused by criminals in modern society. The originality of the approach consists in combining charismatic thoughts and figures such as Cesare Beccaria, Cesare Lombroso, Francesco Garofalo, Quetelet, David Canter, Friedric Nietzsche, with recent scientists such as Adam Raine and the discovery of Neuroscience. The man who delinque, as Nietzsche believed in the nineteenth century, must be considered a "sick man" who needs to be cured, and not an abnormal individual who needs to be isolated from society. By isolating and eliminating those who commit crimes, society will not have achieved a victory and solved its problems of coexistence, but will have sanctioned its defeat.

Abstract
The text traces in a linear and clear way the studies and the most interesting theories, Italian and foreign, on the issue of crime. This also allows new generations and young students to have at their fingertips a historical and theoretical framework easily assimilated and essential to address and try to solve, with the help of law, the problems caused by criminals in modern society. The originality of the approach consists in combining charismatic thoughts and figures such as Cesare Beccaria, Cesare Lombroso, Francesco Garofalo, Quetelet, David Canter, Friedric Nietzsche, with recent scientists such as Adam Raine and the discovery of Neuroscience. The man who delinque, as Nietzsche believed in the nineteenth century, must be considered a "sick man" who needs to be cured, and not an abnormal individual who needs to be isolated from society. By isolating and eliminating those who commit crimes, society will not have achieved a victory and solved its problems of coexistence, but will have sanctioned its defeat.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
