The link between crime and the economy is wide, full of edges and with interesting theoretical and empirical problems. For this reason, this article seeks to offer an overview of the scope and limits of this traditional nexus. For this, the explanations from sociology, economics and criminology were organized into three groups: criminal rationality, political economy of crime and economic deprivation. Each group was reviewed in the light of its origins, its basic arguments, its theoretical limits and its most relevant empirical problems; with special attention to the results that the investigation has had in the comparative study of crime. In conclusion, the text provides a clearer perspective on the status of economic explanations of crime;on the lines to follow to study the economic characteristics of crime; and an extensive Bibliography that will serve to guide future research.

Keywords : crime, economics, criminology, sociology of crime, political economy of crime, economic deprivation.

 

Abstract

The link between crime and the economy is wide and with appealing theoretical and empirical problems. In view of this the present paper offers a review of the advantages and the limits of this almost traditional link.

The review of each group included its origins and its basic arguments so as its more important theoretical limits and empirical problems.

It also offers an extensive bibliography to guide students' interests and future research.

Key words : crime, economy, criminology, crime sociology, crime political economy, economic deprivation.

Deviance or abnormal behavior appeared as social problems alongside the industrialization processes of western Europe in the 18th and 19th centuries. The abrupt changes in the social structure and economic production were accompanied by the rapid growth of urban centers, the emergence of urban crime, and the growth of the so-called new “dangerous classes”.These suboptimal products of industrialization quickly became the object of study of the social thought of the time, thus becoming the first link between economic processes and criminality.
