CRIME PREVENTION THEORY AND PRACTICE
CRIME PREVENTION THEORY AND PRACTICE

Summary/Abstract: This paper examines the importance and necessity of a comprehensive understanding and analysis of theoretical models for the development of effective preventive strategies aimed at preventing crime. The article seeks to demonstrate that theoretical models do not serve merely as academic frameworks, but also possess significant heuristic value. A critical examination of sociological, biological, psychological and environmental factors as criminogenic predispositions, formulated in the form of scientific theories, contributes to a better understanding of crime and to the shaping of crime-control policy. Such an approach is important for improving practice in the field of criminal justice and, particularly, for the prevention of criminal and related forms of behaviour.
