Difference between juvenile delinquency prevention and juvenile delinquency control?

The difference between Juvenile delinquency prevention and control is simple. Prevention is pre-crime. Control is post-crime. For example, Boys and girls programs, after school programs and drug abuse programs are prevention. They are trying to prevent the problem from happening. Seaches and sezures, check points, arrests and things of this sort are considered to be control. When you get caught at a check point its not preventing you from drinking it is meant to catch you in the act of drinking and driving. You have already committed the crime.

Why was cholera so prevalent in Victorian times?

You have to understand how dirty the cities and towns were at this time. People did not have any sort of indoor plumbing and threw the contents of their "chamber pots" into the streets each morning. They had absolutely no idea of how diseases were spread nor did they have any treatments for them. What they had were just superstitions.
