Abstract

The effects and social determinants of pathological behaviors seem to have been widely described and constitute the primary motivation for penal and social rehabilitation interventions aimed mainly at protecting the social interest and welfare from threatening individuals or groups. The question of harm and suffering experienced by the perpetrator (perpetrators) seems rather controversial. This paper is an attempt at analyzing selected aspects of social pathology from the perspective of an individual, who is its subject - the perpetrator but also, to some extent, the main victim of his/her own actions. These dimensions comprise a psychosociological, ethical and transcendental perspective of the discussed phenomenon, respectively corresponding to the role of mental and social mechanisms, values, and spirituality of the offender.
