What the college says

How do we explain why people commit crime? What makes someone a serial killer? Criminologists have produced theoretical explanations of why people commit crime, but which is the most useful? How do we decide what behaviour is criminal? To what extent are we misled by our tastes in programmes and newspapers about crime? Who decides what behaviours should be against the law? Who gathers information about crime? Can this information be trusted? Can we trust our own instincts?
