• The present article aims to rewrite the modern ideal of criminality fear or social transgression, in the sense of revealing both its hidden dynamics and the other modern ideals hidden in this social fear and tedious rationality of institutional vigilance. To accomplish this purpose, we will use Lyotard's rewriting concept and recent studies of Cultural Criminology, so that in the first case we can rewrite and reframe the modern ideal of criminality fear and, in the second, expose the relationship between crime, crime control, excitement and culture in cities. For this reason, we understand that the sense of social insecurity that justifies the enlightenment policies (fear of crime) is early a problem aggravated by modernity and that imposes the notion that crime is a pathology, a fact less normal or social than punishment.
