Critical Overview of the Development and Status of Criminal Investigation in Slovenia (1920–2012)

Sažetak

Far less research has been done in the field of criminalistics in Slovenia than in other neighbor coun-tries, especially in the republics of former Yugoslavia (Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina). Al-so, less attention has been paid to criminalistics than other criminal justice sciences like criminology. Rare individuals carried out empirical research projects and there were also only a few theoretical works – mostly masters and doctoral thesis. There were few scientific and professional articles and handbooks. The reasons for this are, on the one hand, that there is little interest from the police for such research, while on the other hand the difficulties of practical research methodology do not moti-vate enough the researchers to tackle this topic. Such situation may have negative influence on practi-cal criminal investigation where low efficiency and effectivness of investigation is noticed. In recent years, however, the situation is slightly improving, mostly because of the work done at the Faculty of criminal justice and security, but the perspcetive of criminalistics as a science is bad since it is not classified as a science and researchers and lecturers are classified as "criminologists". Yet, some of Slovene criminalists were inovative in certain fields of the science.
