Criminology is the study of crime, criminals, and criminal behavior, while penology focuses on the punishment and control of crime through the criminal justice system. Penology intersects with criminology by examining the effectiveness of different forms of punishment and rehabilitation in preventing crime and reducing recidivism. Both fields work together to understand and address issues related to crime and its consequences.
