Course description
The goal of this course is to build on the survey of criminological theories and perspectives covered in CRIM1000 and offer students the opportunity to delve deeper into five primary theoretical perspectives that explain the short term and long term causes of crime and deviance. This course develops the knowledge and skills to map the key theoretical frameworks, using their 'criminological imaginations' to understand the causality of crime and a range of mechanisms that might be used to change pathways into and out of crime and/or victimisation.
