The theories that criminologists use to answer these questions are built on a number of underlying assumptions, including those about the nature of crime, free will, human nature, and society. These assumptions have a fundamental impact on criminology: they largely determine what criminologists study, the causes they examine, the control strategies they recommend, and how they test their theories and evaluate crime-control strategies. In Toward a Unified Criminology, noted criminologist Robert Agnew provides a critical examination of these assumptions, drawing on a range of research and perspectives to argue that these assumptions are too restrictive, unduly limiting the types of "crime" that are explored, the causes that are considered, and the methods of data collection and analysis that are employed. As such, they undermine our ability to explain and control crime. Agnew then proposes an alternative set of assumptions, drawing heavily on both mainstream and critical theories of criminology, with the goal of laying the foundation for a unified criminology that is better able to explain a broader range of crimes. 410 0$aNew perspectives in crime, deviance, and law series. 606 $aCriminology 606 $aCriminologists 606 $aCrime 615 0$aCriminology. 615 0$aCriminologists. 615 0$aCrime. 676 $a364 700 $aAgnew$b Robert$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01185431 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781715403321 996 $aToward a Unified Criminology$93707041 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02087nam 2200205zu 450 001 996694009703316 005 20260108110836.0 035 $a(CKB)37900244000041 035 $a(UnM)99828523 035 $a(EXLCZ)9937900244000041 100 $a20250319|1677uuuu || | 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 200 10$aMerchants Map Of Commerce : Wherein The Universal Manner And Matter Of Trade Is Compendiously Handled.
