Criminology


Criminology is a multi-disciplinary approach to examining and understanding the complex nature of criminal justice issues. This can include the study into the theory of crime, social foundations of criminal behavior, theories of punishment, and social structural components of the legal and criminal justice systems. It generally incorporates components from sociology, law and psychology.
