Resumen
HUERTAS-DIAZ, Omar. Approaches to criminal anthropology from Lombroso's perspective. Rev. Crim. [online]. 2011, vol.53, n.1, pp.293-306. ISSN 1794-3108.
The Lombrosian criminological paradigm is still supporting today's mostly prize winning North American and European criminological investigations used to control and prevent the commission of punishable behaviors. Nevertheless, history has proved that this type of appreciations is far from bringing a solution to the criminality issue and, on the contrary, they open the door to intolerance, segregation and arbitrariness. Within this framework, it is worth pointing out that in this article a reflection developed on Lombroso's expositions is aimed at off ering the readers some elements for them to identify, characterize and adopt a stand with regard to the criminality phenomenon, based on their comprehension of criminal anthropology.
