Presentation
A true "total (integral) science of criminal law" must bring together, in a coherent whole, the knowledge of criminology, criminal policy and Criminal Law. The latter, as a branch of the legal system, continues to be the normative field that reflects, limits and challenges the contributions of criminology and criminal policy, with the dogmatic analysis of the difficult balance between the need to protect the rights of the individual against harmful behaviors of others and the need to guarantee the latter against the abuse of state power.
