Abstract

El ejercicio de la política criminal suele entenderse desde una perspectiva normativa; sin embargo, es posible identificar un uso descriptivo del concepto y asumirlo como un ejercicio de poder en relación con el fenómeno criminal en el que interactúan discursos y prácticas punitivas. En este artículo se referirá la relación entre discursos (saber) y prácticas punitivas (poder) involucradas en la formación de una política criminal como la diseñada con la política de defensa y seguridad democrática.
