Throughout this course, you undoubtedly thought, “If I was in charge, I would do this or that to solve/ curb/ decrease crime” (or perhaps you didn’t think that, so now is the time!). For this exam question, you are tasked with providing well-thought out and well-supported recommendations for dealing with the problem of crime (either at a national level or a community level). For example, some of you might focus on law-making while others may focus on community solutions (or you could focus on both, but make sure you justify / explain why you’re focusing on that particular area).
Some of you will centre your recommendations about ‘what to do about crime’ around more traditional criminological approaches, while others will take a more radical /new/ ‘out of the box’ approach, so to speak. Regardless of which approach you take, your recommendations have to be supported by evidence. For example, you cannot argue we need to re-introduce the death penalty to curb crime, since research does not support this as a viable solution to crime. Make sure you reference at least TWO theories, ONE documentary (this includes video clips; TedTalks, or news stories), that we watched during the course, as well as research studies we discussed, and other concepts we covered. For example, if you argue that we should focus on interventions with young people, you should be referring to the correlates of crime (that age is one of the correlates; explain what a correlate of crime is; explain that age – be specific – is correlated, etc.,). However, keep in mind that correlates of crime is NOT a theory of crime.
Theories refer to the following, although this is not an extensive list: labelling theory, conflict theories, strain theory, general strain theory, social bond theory, routine activities theory, penal abolition, etc. (If you’re unsure, email me).

This paper should detail your reactions to the arguments made about the concept

This paper should detail your reactions to the arguments made about the concept and assumptions of justice that informs the criminal justice system (i.e., indigenous justice, retributive justice vs. restorative justice). How does the perspective of healing differ from punishment?
Summary: (1 page)
In this section, you will identify and briefly summarize a topic
Analysis: (1-2 pages)
In this section (which should also be your longest section), you are to reflect on and analyze the topic covered in the previous section by drawing on the readings, videos and Blackboard class discussion. This section should not simply be a summarization of key points or statistics about a topic (that is for section one), but a critical analysis or argument about the topic. Explore your topic in more depth and detail. You may for example choose to: A. Take a position on the topic and argue that position as well as analyzing other positions or viewpoints. B. Compare and contrast a topic or issue with another topic. C. Relate a topic/issue to a current event or documentary. D. Critique of a class reading or documentary. Remember, this is an analysis and therefore your critique or arguments need to be supported by credible information sources, not just personal opinions or assumptions. These information sources can be from lectures, readings, or other academic sources (Wikipedia does NOT count).
Reaction: (1 page)
This section is essentially a “journal entry” to share your thoughts and feelings about the topic you’ve selected (you can describe your feelings related to the readings, class activities, discussions, etc.). We will be discussing complex social issues about the criminal justice system and most people will have a perspective or emotional response regarding these issues (usually shaped by a number of factors). You can discuss whether the topic presented in class was something you had never thought about before or whether you’ve had a change in perspective about a particular topic. You are encouraged to be as honest and open as you’d like. Honesty will never have a negative impact on your grade. Try to explain why you might have had the reaction that you did — whether negative or positive.
