| Resumo: | In this unpublished book by Émile Durkheim dating from 1893, while teaching a course on criminal sociology (retrieved and edited by Dr. Matthieu Béra), the French author deploys a typology of crimes according to their social causes. Among these, the author highlights the following types of crimes: altruistic; ataxic; alcoholic; and anomic. Before arriving at this innovative criminal typology, the Gallic author begins by sociologically defining crime, then problematizes certain cosmic, individual, anthropological, and neurological factors that may influence crime, until reaching the social causes of this phenomenon.
