CRITIQUES OF SITUATIONAL CRIME PREVENTION

CRITIQUES OF SITUATIONAL CRIME PREVENTION . Wortley, R. (2010). CRITIQUES of SITUATIONAL CRIME PREVENTION . In B. Fisher & S. Lab (eds) Encyclopedia of Victimology and CRIME PREVENTION . Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage. SITUATIONAL CRIME PREVENTION has been a controversial development, and has struggled to gain acceptance within mainstream academic criminology . The concerns and approaches of SITUATIONAL PREVENTION contrast in significant ways with those of traditional criminological theory. Where criminology generally seeks to understand offenders and the social and psychological forces that create them, SITUATIONAL PREVENTION is concerned only with the immediate circumstances under which CRIME is performed. The SITUATIONAL approach promotes neither social reform nor offender rehabilitation, both central themes elsewhere in criminology . Instead, SITUATIONAL theorists and researchers actively engage with police and other governmental agencies to help tackle immediate CRIME problems.

Criticisms of situational crime prevention are of two broad sorts – those questioning the theoretical and conceptual adequacy of the approach, and those attacking the ethical foundations and social outcomes of situational interventions. Theoretical and conceptual criticisms
