THEORIES OF CRIME CAUSATION
This briefing provides an overview of some of the key criminological theories that seek to explain the causes of crime; it is by no means an exhaustive list. Each of the theories covered has its own strengths and weaknesses, has gaps, and may only be applicable to certain types of crime, and not others. There is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ theory. By the way, this is a sort of expounding more what we have learned in “introduction to criminology”.
Main theories such as biological and sociological etiology of crime branch out into several paths and will be part of this “ONLINE COURSE”. As prescribed in the curriculum it specifically allows us to recall and explain the following theories:
« Distinguish and apply Biological and Psychological Theories in the causes of crimes.
« Illustrate and use Sociological and Economic Theories in understanding the causes of Crimes.
« Correlate and explain Biopsychosocial Theories of the causes of Crimes.
« Understanding theories on women offenders.
