This article discusses the relationship between criminality and law from a sociological perspective, focusing on social control and the role of law in regulating societal behavior.

In this context, the law functions as a tool of social control aimed at maintaining order and stability.

This approach emphasizes the importance of understanding the social context in the application of law and the effectiveness of social control in addressing criminality. Through theoretical analysis and literature review, the article offers a more comprehensive understanding of the relationship between crime and law in modern social structures.
