abstract="Crime control policies are inextricably connected to efforts to understand the causes of crime. As theories of crime causation change, so-imperfectly and with delay-do efforts to contain, prevent, and respond to criminal acts. A tendency to isolate crime control policy from theory has recently developed, influenced in part by the belief that &quot;nothing works,&quot; that we do not know how to reduce the future criminality of convicted offenders. The tendency is unfortunate and uninformed. Research and theory in many disciplines and from many perspectives have identified a number of basic notions about crime which can inform criminal policy. Those basic notions-including concern for social ties, social learning, and perceived risks and opportunities-can be integrated into a theory of &quot;differential anticipation&quot; which provides a sound foundation for sensible and hopeful public policies.   <p>Language: en</p>",
