Abstract :

The principle of minimal criminal law (intervention of the criminal law minimum) allows the use of this branch of jurisprudence in a situation where it is not possible to resort to other guarantees of enforcement, namely the guarantee of civil and administrative enforcement. The volume and scope of criminal law in liberal states is also one of the current challenges of law and politics. The connection with criminology does not have a clear position. In many cases, this position is not accompanied by tolerance, and in some cases, the government has criminalized and enacted the law with the utmost speed and intensity; Hence, the place of observance of the principle of tolerance, which is regularly heard from politicians, is not clear. In Iran, the roots of the government's desire to use criminal law can be related to the scope of government, the entry of this institution into the field of ethics and privacy. In fact, criminalization is not done in a technical way, but influenced by the ideology of the government and the tendencies of this institution. In this article, the authors will refer to the analysis of the basics of the subject in a descriptive-analytical manner.
