About this subject

Understanding a wide array of criminological perspectives is important when examining the problems of crime and justice. This subject explores the emergence and evolution of criminological theory, and the ways in which crime has been and is in contemporary time defined, constructed and regulated. From traditional to emerging perspectives, you will study the practical application of these ideas. Considering theory in practice, you will question how and why crime is understood, policed and punished. As you critically examine popular conceptions of crime and criminality, you will be learning independent skills in criminology that will contribute to life-long application in a professional career in the field.
