Type Theorists Characteristics
Classical Free will theories Hedonistic calculus   Biological Phrenology Atavism Chromosome theory Nutritional theory Psychological Psychoanalysis Behavioural theories     Sociological Differential association Subcultures Anomie Labeling   Social-psychological Restraint Containment Social control   Conflict Radical criminology The new criminology   Phenomenological Criminal personality Career criminality   Baccaria Bentham     Gall Lombroso Sheldon Jacobs     Freud Skinner   Cohen Merton Becker Sutherland     Burgess Reckless Hirschi     Turk Vold Quinney   Yochelson Samenow     Crime is caused by the individual exercise of free will. Prevention is possible through swift and certain punishment which offsets any gains to be had through criminal behaviour. Criminal genes cause deviant behaviour. Criminals are identifiable through physical characteristics or genetic composition. Treatment is generally ineffective, but aggression may be usefully redirected.   Crime is a result of negative early childhood experiences or the product of a desire to be caught. Treatment necessitates extensive therapy.   Aspects of social life produce through association with others already committed to criminal behaviour or via the established social structure as it reacts to deviance and attempts to maintain existing power relationships. Therapy may require basic changes in socialization and pathway to opportunity.   Crime results from the failure of self-direction or inadequate social role. Treatment requires strengthened self-concepts.     Crime is a natural consequence of social, political and economic inequities.     The source of criminal behaviour is unknown, but an understanding of deviant behaviour is available through case studies and detailed descriptions of deviant life-style. Therapy requires a total reorientation of the offender.
