The author reviews in eight chapters the history of victimology, its relationship with criminal sciences, its multiple typologies and the importance of international symposia on the subject, which have helped to mitigate the isolation suffered by the crime victim. The trajectory of the victimological studies in the world is also analyzed; the contributions of criminologists and victimologists; the treatment of the victim in the new Mexican penal system, with emphasis on the measures aimed at repairing the damage, and the consideration of the victim in both the Rome Statute and the International Criminal Court. This historical synthesis includes the contributions and difficulties of victimological science; it brings us closer to one of the most difficult legal, social and cultural issues, and raises the importance of understanding the processes of victimization, access to justice, assistance to the victim and the prevention of crime. Este libro aborda una de las áreas más olvidadas en el estudio del delito: la de las personas que sufren las consecuencias de la violencia, la cual fractura la vida de los ciudadanos y transforma sus costumbres sociales y culturales, sus vínculos, sus ideales y su esperanza. La autora revisa en ocho capítulos la historia de la victimología, su relación con las ciencias penales, sus múltiples tipologías y la importancia de los simposios internacionales en la materia, que han contribuido a atenuar el aislamiento que sufría la víctima del delito. Se analiza también la trayectoria de los estudios victimológicos en el mundo; las contribuciones de criminólogos y victimólogos; el tratemiento de la víctima en el nuevo sistema penal mexicano, con énfasis en las medidas orientadas a la reparación del daño, y la consideración de la víctima tanto en el Estatuto de Roma como en la Corte Penal Internacional. Esta síntesis histórica incluye los aportes y las dificultades de la ciencia victimológica; nos acerca a una de las problemáticas jurídicas, sociales y culturales más difíciles, y plantea la importancia de comprender los procesos de victimización, el acceso a la justicia, la asistencia a la víctima y la prevención del delito.
