Discussion Topic You have studied various criminological theories in this course. Do you think that a
specific theory can explain why people commit crimes? Do you think that our
society is obsessed with finding reasons for every phenomenon? Would it be
different if we accept and deal with situations without spending our time and
energy on finding causes for these situations? Discuss whether you think there
could be a "one-size-fits-all" explanation for crime, especially provided the
diversity in our country.

I do not believe that one specific theory can explain why people commit crimes. Our society is most definitely obsessed with finding explanations for everything, it is human nature. I think it would be very different if we just dealt with everything that happened and didn't look into the science of it, we would not have any of these theories to work with.  There could not be a "one-size-fits-all" theory for crime, there is such a wide array of circumstances and crime that it wouldn't be fair judgement of anyone.
