being a social phenomenon. Thus, study of criminology is a social
science
•It is an applied science. In the study of causes of crimes, different fields
related to criminology may be applied and the utilization of division of
criminalistics in crime detection is what you call Instrumentation.
•It is nationalistic. The study of crimes must be in relation with the
existing criminal law within a territory or country. The question as to
whether an act is a crime is dependent on the criminal law of a state.
• It is dynamic. Criminology changes as a social condition changes. It is
concomitant with the advancement of other science that has been
applied to it.

FUNDAMENTAL
SCHOOLS OF
THOUGHT IN
EXPLAINING THE
CAUSES OF CRIME

THE CLASSICAL SCHOOL OF
CRIMINOLOGY
•The Classical School was founded by Italian
philosopher Cesare Beccaria in his book “On
Crimes and Punishments” in 1764.
•Beccaria argued that “Punishment should be
proportional to the crime committed and that
the criminal justice system should be focused
on preventing offenses rather than just
punishing them.”

THE CLASSICAL SCHOOL OF
CRIMINOLOGY
•The Classical School of Criminology is a theoretical
perspective on crime that emerged during the
Enlightenment era in the late 18th century.
•It is based on the belief that crime is a rational
decision and individuals will engage in criminal
behavior if the potential rewards outweigh the
potential risks.
•This theory emphasizes the importance of punishment
and deterrents in controlling crime.

THE basic elements of CLASSICAL
SCHOOL theory
•The Classical theory posits that individuals have free will and
can choose to engage in criminal or law-abiding behaviour.
•According to this perspective, individuals who
commit crimes are driven by greed or personal need.
•The theory also suggests that the fear of punishment
is the only way to control behavior and that harsh
strictures would curb unlawful actions.
•Swift and sure punishment is more effective in
deterring criminal behavior

THE basic elements of CLASSICAL
SCHOOL theory
•In summary, classical theory views individuals
as rational actors who are rational and
capable of making choices. It asserts that
punishment is an effective means of
regulating criminal behaviour and that the
severity of punishment should be proportional
to the level of wrongdoing.
•“LET THE PUNISHMENT FIT THE CRIME.”

CRITIQUE OF THE CLASSICAL
THEORY OF PUNISHMENT
•Punishment based solely on the crime committed
without considering individual circumstance, is
often criticized for being unfair and unjust.
•This approach ignores that offenders may have
different culpability and reasons for committing a
crime, such as mental illness, poverty, or social
pressure. Therefore, it can lead to disproportionate
and arbitrary punishments.

CRITIQUE OF THE CLASSICAL
THEORY OF PUNISHMENT
•The classical view of punishment only focuses on the
injury caused by the crime, not the offender’s mental
condition. This means that the same punishment is
given regardless of whether the offender is a first-time
or repeat offender (Petersilia, 2017).
•This approach has been criticized as unjust since it fails
to consider the mitigating factors that may contribute
to an offender’s behaviour and chances of
rehabilitation.

2.NEO CLASSICAL SCHOOL
•This school modified the doctrine of free will by
stating that free will of men may be affected
by other factors and crime is committed due
to some compelling reasons that prevail.
•It arose during French revolution with the
modification that children and lunatics and
others were not legally responsible for their
actions.

2.NEO CLASSICAL SCHOOL
•This school of thought questioned that there
