Nature of the Crime

In humanities, nature of the crime is recognized by conceptual definition yet in criminal law; exceptionally crime is defined by Act. In fact in criminal law, nature of the crime is legal definition of crime, whereas this kind of definition refers to offences separately and then it is not definition of the crime basically. Understanding the nature of the crime in criminal law inevitably is dependant on three external methods: First definition of offences, which points the nature of offences in each case and not by focusing on the nature of the crime; Second, by using the concepts in humanities such as sociology, philosophy and moral and third, by attending the comparison crime with similar titles which may help the distinctions among the crimes, but not understanding the nature of crime. In any case, crime is one of the most prominent interdisciplinary subjects and criminal law should at last conceder the humanities for explaining the nature of the crime.
