week 9 course project ccj 5019

Now that you have examined two theories of crime and how they might explain any particular crime, it is time to examine how criminal justice responses to crime may be shaped by these theories. For this part of your course project, complete the following:

• Discuss your first theory and how criminal justice responses may be formed based on the assumptions of this theory.
• Discuss your second theory and how criminal justice responses may be formed based on the assumptions of this theory.
• Examine any actual criminal justice responses that have been implemented based on the assumptions of these theories.
• This assignment should be at least two 2-3 pages in length (adding to the final paper).
• Use at least 3-5 scholarly sources that discuss a criminal justice response. These sources must be properly cited using APA format. Students should seek out peer-reviewed scholarly journal articles from LIRN to complete this assignment or explore the National Criminal Justice Reference Service for examples of how the criminal justice system has responded.
