Abstract

On 1st January 1889 the Internationale Kriminalistische Vereinigung (known in French as Association Internationale de Droit Penal) was established. At the time of its centenary, Prof. Sir Leon Radzinowicz, the most distinguished criminologist and author, who has a longstanding involvement in the international study of crime and punishment, casts his eyes over past achievements and reexamines them somewhat critically. This fresh study of the formative period of the I.K.V., although seemingly remote, contains much that is vitally relevant to many of our present day concerns.
