Cuando pensamos críticamente el derecho penal o el conjunto del sistema punitivo, no ponemos atención en la forma de hacerlo, en la propia actividad de criticar. Esta, como todo saber, está determinada por la cultura y los cambios epistemológicos que afectan los modelos explicativos -bien lo sabe, la teoría del delito-. El problema se da por mantener un saber crítico, basado en un ideal clásico de racionalidad, acostumbrado a dividir, descontextualizar, en definitiva a simplificar, lo que por termina por contrariar su objetivo inicial. La propia actividad crítica resulta atrapada por el control social que critica. Para ello metodológicamente, no pretendemos desarrollar una micropolémica, sino una mirada del movimiento totalizante.
When we critically think of criminal law or the punitive system as a whole, no attention is paid to the way it is done (criticizing in itself). Criticism, as all other fields of knowledge, is determined by culture and epistemological changes which affect explanatory models -as stated by the theory of crime. The problem arises when a critical knowledge is kept based on a classic ideal of rationality commonly used to divide, to take out of context, and, at the end, to simplify, which finally results in challenging its initial purpose. The critical activity in itself becomes framed in the social control it criticizes. For this reason, we do not pretend to methodologically develop a controversy but taking a look to the totalizing movement.
