Summary/Abstract: Since the beginning of the historical era, the association of work with criminal liability can be found. In all important states of Antiquity, slavery was associated with criminal slavery. Convicts to forced labour in mineral and salt mines are mentioned by the Romans; in Egypt, convicts put in chains were working on dams and irrigation channels; we receive such information from Assyrian, Indian and Greek sources. Running a bow over time and through the Dark Ages, criminal scientists of modern age stop to examine the realities of their time, concerning the great revolutionary transformations and the socio-political reforms in England, USA, France and other West European countries.
