Talk:Theories of victimology

Latest comment: 8 years ago by Jgesnard

Greetings! Throughout my Sociology course, I will be adding to this article periodically. Here are some sources I will be using to assist me in this matter:

This article theorizes victimization as mere punishment by looking at institutional practices that are deliberately designed to exclude, marginalize, control, alienate or even victimize the imprisoned.[1]

An evaluation of the representation of theories in victimology textbooks. [2]

abuse v crime

edit

crime is just a subset of abuse where the state considers that the abuse breaks a law. No doubt that there are better statistics on crime than abuse in general but i think everything in this article applies to abuse in general but it is confused whether it is about crime or abuse or both. Also there is an overlap with victimisation and victimology.--Penbat (talk) 18:48, 3 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

Sure. I agree. -- Rmrfstar (talk) 21:34, 4 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
