| Summary: |
The differences between statistical figures related to the crime phenomenon are important as not all records fit into an analytical way of thought, which leads to the search for a genesis of crime, of the characteristics of the criminal groups, of the circumstances leading to the punishable act and to the proposals for its control. When considering that it is a priority to make way for the need for information and to overcome some of the difficulties from primary sources in order to share common aspects with other institutions, the National Police starts, as of 1958, to manage the information and records of the infractions to the statutes and laws protecting the citizens' co-existence and strengthen their security. In order to fortify the capacity to adapt and to influence the environs throughout the knowledge of the criminal reality, a history of personal experiences for over twenty years of work in the Direction of Criminal Investigation (DIJIN) is presented; that is why bibliographic references are scarce. In this publication, the desire to supersede academic goals to publish the Criminalidad magazine, a document with greater and higher projections, is described. And this is the reason for founding the Center for Criminological Research (CIC), which is created as an answer to the lack of exploration to have a path for the development of operational practices, and for the plans and programs to be implemented as a formal social answer to help lower crime. The article shows the chronological development of the Criminalidad magazine as an instrument to make known the Colombian crime statistics in the form of a yearbook, as well as the true summing up of CIC's history and its achievements. |
