Social Prevention And Situational Prevention: Is One Better At Addressing Career Criminals Than The Other?
[ send me this essay ]
16 pages in length. The difference between social prevention and situational prevention when it comes to career criminals speaks to stopping crime from ever occurring or merely thwarting it. The extent to which social prevention is far and away more effective than situational prevention in relation to career criminals is both grand and far-reaching; that social prevention works toward impeding the very nature of criminal activity in the first place addresses the need to reach potential career criminals before they every get to that point, whereas situational prevention merely erects a physical barrier between criminal and target. Clearly, the primary objective of social prevention is to remove circumstances that might otherwise lead one to become a career criminal – those who are multiple and repeat felony offenders – focusing principally upon such concerns as "inadequate parenting, poor early education or bad physical and mental health" (United Nations Department of Public Information, 2000). Bibliography lists 15 sources.
