Vol. 1 (2019)

Volume 1 (August 2019) of Revista Electrónica de Criminología (REC)  makes its debut studies on various criminological topics. It analyzes citizens' punitive attitudes towards life imprisonment with review, the usefulness of forensic odontology in suspect identification through trained dogs, and the indirect effects of frustration on deviance in sports. It also examines a criminological instrument, the crime situation reports (ISD), useful for the realization of strategic programs in public policies of citizen security. The volume closes with a review of the book by Esther Fernández Molina and Mª José Bernuz Beneitez, Justicia de menores.

These articles combine empirical and theoretical approaches to provide updated knowledge on criminology and criminal law. The journal seeks to consolidate itself as a space for scientific dissemination that encourages debate and the development of the discipline in the Spanish-speaking world.
