Summary/Abstract: Romania, together with the other Eastern European countries that belonged to the former communist bloc, started more than 30 years ago on a new path towards acquiring the status of liberal democracies. The literature analyzed crime in liberal democracies and gave interesting answers that argued why they can constitute criminogenic areas. If these liberal democracies, including Romania, can themselves be criminogenic, it is absolutely necessary to analyze whether the law represented, or could represent, an obstacle to the evolution of the volume and structure of current crime. If the law could have an important role in weighing the volume and severity of crime, but this role did not manifest itself, it is important to emphasize the factors that favored this circumstance.
