About this book
Criminal Sociology is presented in the preface as a translation of the portion of the author's volume immediately concerned with the practical problems of criminality. The discussion of punishment treats the principle that punishment should reform the criminal as a secondary principle and an indirect object of punishment.
The argument about piracy claims that steam navigation has been more effective than all the penal codes, while acknowledging that piracy still occurs. The discussion of protection for abandoned children predicts a notable reduction in crimes and offences, while denying that tribunals could close for lack of cases. The account of the cellular system notes concern among prison experts about its great expense.
