Abstract

The pandemic of the new coronavirus represents new determinations in criminal dynamics, as measures of isolation that have a decisive impact on routine activities. At no time, it seems essential to think of epidemiological criminology, in the terms of Timothy A. Akers and Mark M. Lanier, who know and deal with an exhibition of fields in public health and criminology. Command of the routine activities theory by Lawrence E. Cohen and Marcus Felson, the text offers a conjunctural analysis of the factors that positively and negatively influence various forms of violence and deviance. On the other hand, like the prospects for the criminal future, a critical critique of policing is developed as a technique for social control of threats potentially hosted by the flu virus.
