AssignmentTutorOnline
You are working for a juvenile justice non-profit organization. You hear a news story about how the juveniles in your community are starting to cause problems. These problems are beginning to overload the juvenile court system. There are several theories that explain why juveniles become delinquent. Some of the sociological theories include:
Anomie
Social disorganization
Drift theory
Differential association theory.
Locate a sociological theory (it does not have to be one of the theories listed previously). Explain that theory with its relation to juvenile delinquency.
Please note that sociological theories relate to society and external influences over a juvenile, not psychological influences (which relate to internalization within a person) or biological influences (which concern physical problems).
