Abstract

Based on an interdisciplinary approach, the article analyzes the content and internal logic of the traditional question for criminology and sociology: “Why do some commit a crime, while others do not?” According to the authors, in the formulation of this phraseological unit, a methodological error was initially made, because it misrepresents the original message (“why do some people commit a crime”), which led to a false conclusion (“and others do not”). Thus, the historical reconstruction in the area under consideration shows that in the entire history of civilization there has not been a person (with the exception of the incapacitated and those suffering from criminophobia) who would not commit a crime at least once in his life. Therefore, it is proposed put this question differently: “Why do some, having committed a crime, bear criminal responsibility, while others remain unpunished?” Based on this reality, the article puts forward a hypothesis according to which delinquent behavior of a person (including criminal), as well as some genetic diseases, is an immanent property of his being, which was originally embedded in the DNA matrix of all without exception. people from the moment of their conception. This genetically predetermined program is activated in adolescence (12-15 years, sometimes even earlier) and retains its aggressiveness until a person reaches 50 years of age, after which its dynamics become weaker every year.
