Criminology is a branch of criminal science that analyzes the biological, mental, and social causes of the emergence of crime in order to prevent crime perpetration and rehabilitate and cure offenders by means of scientific and objective methods. The development of this field and the failure of government’s policies to confront with criminal phenomenon has engendered novel approaches regarding protests against the present state of the society. One of these branches is critical criminology which was formed in order to criticize structural inequality following the inefficiency of criminal justice system and criminal inflation. One of the most prevalent theories put forth in this particular approach which has had significant influences on the criminal system of nations is peacemaking criminology. This branch of criminology is based on agreement and compromise and indicates an affectionate and peacemaking approach in terms of coping with criminal phenomenon. In fact, this approach is utterly against the practice of violence regarding the execution of punishment. The peacemaking criminology is closely associated with approaches regarding abolitionism, restorative justice, and anarchism and seeks a more secure life for citizens. the opponents of this view believe that peacemaking criminology is a life philosophy and cannot be analyzed empirically. Furthermore, it may lead to the increase of the government regression power. The concepts of peace and compromise have received much attention throughout the world as well as Iran. Aspects of forgiveness and repentance, and so forth in the realm of punishment law and also concepts like abandonment and suspension of prosecution and criminal mediation and so forth in the realm of code of criminal procedure indicate further efforts of Iran’s criminal politicians to decrease violence and hostility and consequently elevate and promote peace and compromise.
