Abstract

The native communities do not necessarily share the same of understanding of laws, rules and norms that the rest of the populations does. Because of this is necessary to analyse how the juridical system can approach these communities, especially regarding criminal law and its application; as in it we can see that the concepts that the doctrine has created for it can be adapted to keep its purpose but adapted to a community that historically has suffered from the other social groups.
