A description of the ways in which sociol'ts approach the phenomenon of crime, with reference to the work of E. Ferrie & E. Durkheim. An explanation of E. Sutherland's theory which regards crime as a S-cul process (PRINCIPLES OF CRIMI- NOLOGY, Boston: Lippincott, 1939) is presented. The importance of psychol'al factors, & the part they play in the development of the criminal, is described with a brief outline of the work of E. De Greff & J. Dollard. A synthesis of the psychol'al & sociol'al aspects follows, with a summary of the work of D. Lagache & C. Jeffery. It is believed that the joint efforts of psychol'al & sociol'al res'es can provide a satisfactory answer only for the purposes of clinical work or specific empirical studies. The 1st basic rule underlying any etiological concept of crime is stated as: The culture of a particular society determines the type of HB which is regarded as criminal. Some recent etiological explanations are presented, embracing the theory of subcultures, the We as a DEL subculture, SC's & DEL alternatives, DEL'cy & S-cul incapacity. It is concluded that a distinction must be drawn between deviant behavior & real criminal conduct, & that sociol'al analysis must be made at 3 levels: cultural, personality, & societal. Modified AA.
