The Theory and Testing of the Reconceptualization of General and Specific Deterrence

The theory and test of reconceptualization of general and specific deterrence introduced the deterrent theory redefined in the May 1993 issue of Crime and Illegal Crime Research and the general deterrence and specific deterrence are I explained that it is a criminal function. Mark C. Stafford, Associate Professor of Washington State University's Associate Professor, Associate Professor of Rural Sociology and Mark Warr, Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Texas in Austin introduced the theory.

Stafford and Warr (1993) redefines general and specific deterrence as a theory based on a combination of personal and alternative experience to punish the tendency of individuals to engage in crime and to avoid punishment I will. Current research extends the previous tests of conceptualization of deterrence, expands the definition of alternative experiences, analyzes outrageous results, investigates multiple types of violations, and extracts from prison samples of release facilities Extract the data. Although the results can not support legal deterrence as explanation of violation of this sample, it suggests the importance of super legal results.

Redefining the illogical paradox and deterrence theory of this way of thinking, taking into account the fact that you can experience general and specific deterrence (Stafford & Warr, 1993; Paternoster & Piquero, 1995). The researchers did not state it explicitly, but the fact that it was used to conceptualize the error dichotomy between specific deterrence and general deterrence was a divergent error. This error assumes that, if there is at least one other option, it is more than just an incorrect dilemma or two alternatives.

There are two basic forms of deterrence: general deterrence and specific deterrence. Specific deterrence is designed to prevent perpetrators from committing such crimes in the future (deterrence theory, nd, p. 233). Deterrence is generally designed to prevent crimes committed by ordinary people. Therefore, the punishment of offenders by criminals is an example of other people in the general population who have not yet participated in criminal cases (deterrence theory, nd, p. 233). Some people may morally support deterrence against retaliation based on general deterrence, but they do not just try to hurt those who commit crimes, but simply try to prevent them. Overall deterrence, research showed that genes may or may cause criminal behavior (Daily reporter, November 2010). With this in mind, it is right to punish individuals for taking actions that might exceed their control.
