From Historical Social Science to the Historical Study of Crime

This article develops a sui generis account of the genesis of the historical study of crime that resists the temptation to attribute the beginning of the social history of crime to the emergence of the “History from Below” movement of the 1970s.

Written from the point of view of a historical criminologist, the article argues that studying crime historically requires giving equal weight to the “historical study of crime” and to the “criminological study of the past”. By arguing that the study of crime in historical perspective is best understood as a particular instantiation of what Immanuel Wallerstein called “historical social science”, the article develops a characterization of the historical study of crime that moves beyond its conventional representation as a history specialization. Cet article propose une version sui generis de la genèse de l’histoire de la criminalité qui résiste à la tentation de l’attribuer à l’émergence de l’« histoire d’en bas » dans les années 1970. Fondé sur une perspective de criminologie historique, l’article soutient que l’étude historique de la criminalité exige de donner un poids équivalent à « l’histoire de la criminalité » et à la « criminologie du passé » et qu’elle constitue un exemple particulier de l’« histoire science sociale » telle que la définit Immanuel Wallerstein. Cette manière de caractériser ce domaine de recherche va au-delà de sa représentation conventionnelle comme spécialité historique.
