“…Anomies therefore pose a threat to the democratic structure of Western societies. In recent research, anomie approaches play an important role, especially in sociology and criminology (Agnew 2016;Collins and Menard 2021;Dearden et al 2021;Krohn et al 2019;Sebaldt et al 2020;Thome 2016). In democratic theory, 'antinomies' form a field of research with a long tradition in the history of ideas; the concept of anomie is suitable here to identify the discrepancy between normative guidelines and their actions, which bring about the opposite of the normative ideals, as a cross-structural democratic deficit.…”

This article links three rarely considered dimensions related to the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI)-based technologies in the form of predictive policing and discusses them in relation to liberal democratic societies. The three dimensions are the theoretical embedding and the workings of AI within anomic conditions (1), potential normative disorders emerging from them in the form of thinking errors and discriminatory practices (2) as well as the consequences of these disorders on the psychosocial, and emotional level (3). Against this background, AI-induced anomie is conceptualized as a field of tension that refers to a systematic deterioration of democratic norms that are supposed to create ‘normative orders’, but which, when implemented through AI-supported measures, can reproduce existing discriminations, and establish new kinds of discriminatory relations. In future, these AI-based measures have the potential to lead to opposing normative disorders by emerging in the form of false social norms to an equally false Second Nature. They deprive persons involved of the possibility of individual appropriation of social norms and the specific emotional development associated with it.

These days, technology facilitates the lives of many people. However, it has also assisted crime, which presents severe threats to the assets and tranquility of those who are victims. Therefore, it is necessary to know the types and forms of cybercrime that occur in various countries of Latin America, through a systematic analysis of the literature. Sixty-two articles obtained from the Scopus, Dialnet, and Scielo databases published between 2009 and 2021 were reviewed and analyzed following the classification proposed by Miró Linares. Among the results, it was found that the highest rate corresponds to economic cybercrimes with 43% , followed by social cybercrimes with 41% , and, fina lly, political cybercrimes with 16% , being the malware tool the m o st used. It is concluded that most studies on cybercrime come fro m European and American countries; and that theft, the use of malware (Booter, Spyware, Trojan, Adware, Ransomware) are the main tools for committing cybercrimes, being the most recurrent: theft, cybercrime, and fraud.

“…Interestingly, not many researchers applied macro-theoretical frameworks in efforts to explain cybercrime phenomenon in the past. Dearden et al (2021) examine Messner and Rosenfeld’s institutional anomie theory and uncover how institutional anomie correlates with increased cybercrime activity using a national sample of 215 self-admitted cybercriminals as a macro-theoretical approach.…”
