 Tetude des (piesti<nis coloniales {Rrv. ^S<■ie)lt., Paris, 1880, aout 24 and 

 1892, Oct. 1) to show that to clnmne the civilization (»!' a ])eoi)le it is 

 necessary to chan.ne their souls (anies). Centuries and not coiuniests 

 cau accouiplish a task like that. The emx)iie of the world has always 

 belouiied to the convinced, whose ."reat force consists in their slavery 

 to an idea, and in their complete incapacity to retl<'ct and to reason. 

 AVithout these, perhaps, no civilization would have, been born and 

 humanity would not have arisen above barbarism. 



Lombroso and Ferrero discuss, in a work entitled "La Donna deliu- 

 queiite,"' the subject of the criminality of women. To their view the 

 crimes of men and those of women are two quite ditterent maladies, 

 having' certain .symptoms in common but many more in which they 

 differ widely. Women commit fewer crimes than men, all statistics 

 are agreed on that. M. Guillat estimates the criminality oi' men to be 

 six times greater than that of women and, according to (^uetelet and 

 Tarde, the tendency to crime is five oi- six times more developed in 

 men. 



Leaving out of view dift\?renco in legislation as to the sexes, M. Proal 

 attributes the freedom of women to their greater religious spirit, their 

 indoor life, the smaller number of employments wliich provoke to crime, 

 like forgery and defalcation. Women go about less, and drink less, 

 tlian men. 



From the evolutionist's standpoint, according to Fen( ro, the female 

 has l)eeu less exposed to the struggle for existence. The sexual strug- 

 gle does not exist for her at all and in higher civilization her degenera- 

 tion produces crime in men. Ferrero sums up the causes of w^oman's 

 smaller susceptibility to crime as follows: 



(1) Women are physically \V(;aker ami more timid. 



(2) Fee1)ler sexuality, strong maternity and ))ity. 



(3) The intelligence of woman is less.
