Criminological Theories

Criminological Theories
Choose 2 articles from the 12 listed (links are below).
Each article describes some form of deviant behavior or some group of deviants that can be identified.
Apply as many valid criminological theories to the deviant(s) or criminal behavior as you can.
Discuss the assignment, your articles, and the theories you intend on applying.

You may use other outside materials/research but you must site your sources.
For example, if you choose the article on Tiger Woods’ infidelity and you find a source that says Tiger has the supermale gene (XYY), you may choose to apply the chromosome theory to his deviance and support this theory with your citation. Some articles lend themselves to more research than others.

Theories can only be used once per article. Choose 2 from these 12 articles:
