Abstract

 Inside criminal discipline have established specific theories studying the penalty as the main legal consequence of crime that are currently the subject of discussion. In the Salvadoran legal field, the Constitution according its article 27 paragraph 3, regulates the principle of resocialization, which tends its effects to the penitentiary environment interpreted by more than one as the constitutional establishment of the Special preventive purposes of penalty. Notwithstanding the above, the generalpreventive purposes are always fitted in Salvadorian legal order. This has caused some tension between both purposes at the time of the criminal commination through legislative reform, the application of the rule with the respective sentence or the penal execution through the enforcement of the penalty, which has not always been balance, but that has private one at the expense of the other.
