Exploring the History of French Criminology (1885-1939): the Case of the Archives de l’Anthropologie Criminelle

Résumé

In order to understand the history of French criminology, it is vital to pay close attention to the specificities of the national context; in particular to the way in which criminology became institutionalised as a scientific discipline, and to the historiographical tradition which has accompanied its subsequent development. An important point to note to begin with, and a frequent subject of controversy among researchers and policy-makers, is the fact that criminology in France is not an autonomous academic discipline. It has no independent existence on the Comité national des universities, the national council which ostensibly reflects the country’s academic landscape; neither is it accorded disciplinary status by France’s major public-sector research body, the Centre national de recherche scientifique or CNRS. Criminology is taught on Law, Medicine and Psychology degree courses in France, but the country offers no nationally-recognised qualifications in the subject as such.
