In the sixties of the 20th century is problematize the ideas of crime and offenders, discussing the same idea of progress. Criminology, along with other Social and Human Sciences, underwent a profound crisis of faith that removes etiological original positivist and promotes the emergence of the current late-modern paradigms less confident in the possibilities of knowledge, more thoughtful with their consequences.
