Summary/Abstract: For long time scientific discourses in social sciences have been representing theoretical paradigms within which deviations are viewed as behaviors that deviate from legal, customary, and moral norms. The possibility of deviation in the very content of the legal norm is rarely or not considered at all. Setting standards that are not harmonized with scientific achievements, can lead to a social phenomenon within which individuals and groups behave in accordance with the same, and simultaneously causing, sometimes irrefutable, consequences. The results of the research carried out by criminologists and police, indicate that the scope and the intensity of recruiting graduate criminologists in cantonal police have undoubtedly affected the emergence of legal norms that generalize or produce incompatibility between science and profession on one side and employment of diverse profiles on the other side. Such confirmed incompatibility leads to, conditionally speaking, general acceptance of social acceptability, especially in state institutions, which is contrary to the norms and the needs of science and profession.
