Why is the sociological perspective especially important in studying crime?
The sociological environment including both human interaction and physical environments are important to studying crime because many of the facets of these can be a predictor of future crime and can be used to find the cause of some types of crime. For instance looking at the sociological picture of a low income neighborhood we find that these areas commonly have a disproportionately higher criminal activity than higher income neighborhoods. The causes could include less income, higher chance of single parent households, drug use, etc. Although this is not a rule everywhere it is common enough that we can guage crime. This can allow law enforcment to manage its resources better. As well as allow us to place helpful programs where they will be most beneficial.
