Messner And Rosenfeld's "Political Restraint Of The Market And Levels Of Criminal Homicide: A Cross-National Application Of Institutional-Anomie Theory": Article Critique
Number of pages:
6
ABSTRACT:
6 pages in length. Authors Messner and Rosenfeld strive to demonstrate the inherent relationship between crime and the manner in which society divides its classes. Stating that the differences among nations in rates of crime and violence is as old as the sociology of crime itself, they effectively correlate the connection between social status and the prevalence of criminal homicide. The writer discusses that what is of primary importance to this particular study is the manner by which Messner and Rosenfeld achieve this dramatic correlation through various hypotheses and postulation. No additional sources cited.
