Racism and Immigration in Criminological Thought
Abstract
This paper aims to reflect on racism and immigration in the history of criminological thought. It is not intended to exhaustively analyze each of the different theories that have been developed in this area, but to take a tour of the main perspectives to recognize how racism has developed and immigration has been addressed along criminological thought. It is essential to understand the role played by some of the most important theoretical conceptions in the construction of the other, to understand how they conceived the criminal issue and also to dismantle fallacies that some currents established and have been established over time. A criminology will be vindicated that gets rid of the complicit gaze and understands that it must fulfill an essential task in the criticism of the policies that sanction precariousness and reproduce social exclusion.
