Clues

  • A philosophy often summarised as involving concern with promoting the sum of human happiness (the greatest happiness of the greatest number). In relation to punishment, therefore, utilitarian philosophy tends to focus upon the goal of the prevention (14)
  • A police organisational strategy that decentralises policing, seeks to be responsive to local citizen demands + incorporate a general problem-oriented approach to policing, - to help communities resolve crime problems collaboratively (9, 8)
  • A process whereby the parties with a stake in a particular offence come together to resolve collectively how to deal with the aftermath of the offence and its implications for the future. (11, 7, 2)
  • A recently emerging strand of criminological theory that combines traditional sociological theories with aspects of cultural studies. (8, 11)
  • A theory which emphasises the importance of rationality in human action, even if this is limited (or ‘bounded’) (8, 6)
  • An approach to punishment which stresses the importance of prevention through incarceration/imprisonment or other restriction (14)
  • An early criminological school based upon the assumption that criminals are rational actors capable of choosing between different courses of action (9, 11)
  • Offences committed by high status individuals within the workplace or in the interests of the organisation (5, 6, 5)
  • The application of a label or identity to a person or a group in a way that has some consequential effect on behaviour (9, 6)
  • The observation, based largely on data drawn from victimisation surveys, that criminal victimisation is not evenly distributed, but is concentrated in particular places and on particular people. (6, 13)
