Criminology focusing more on the causes and criminal justice focus on maintaining “social control†(Siegel, 2018).

I also learned about green collared crimes which is described as a crime that is committed against nature (Siegel, 2018). Social harm theory is another aspect I learned about in this unit. The social harm theory states a crime can be established as a crime due to the injury caused by that crime (Siegel, 2018). It also claims that behaviors that cause injury are punished as crimes but other behaviors that may be inappropriate but do not inflict harm are not punished as crimes (Siegel, 2018). A reliable measure is one that produces results that ae consistent form measurement to measurement (Siegel, 2018). Theory construction is the prediction of behavior from individually (Siegel, 2018). I learned about the different crimes that are considered white collar such as embezzlement and client fraud (Siegel, 2018).
