Document Summary
They are criminologist but there is no criminology back in that time. Intelligence and rationality are fundamental characteristics of humans. Classical emerges when the time and theories are dying. Each and every one of us has free will. Society comes together when they think it is rational. Crime then is a product of free choice individuals; you think you know what"s best for you. Weigh the benefits of committing a crime. When the benefit of the crime outweighs the cost of crime, you will commit crime. You want to make the cost greater than the benefit. If the cost is greater than the benefit of committing crime than i won"t do it. Behaviour is a product that is beyond the control of an individual. Crime is not a product of free choice. When you commit crime you aren"t really doing it, something is pushing you to do it.
