Some criminal justice students have questioned the need to learn about
criminological theory because it is not related to the real world, or at least
the field of criminal justice. Many students and professionals believe that the
fast pace of policing neighborhoods and the practice of investigation is a
science of practicality, not of theory.

In a 3-4-page essay, discuss at least3 policies on the left-hand side below,
and discuss which of the theories on the right-hand side might have influenced
these policies. The policies and theories are not listed in any particular
order, and any policy could be related to any of the theories on the list. You
may also use other polices not listed, as long as you relate these policies to
the ideas found in the theories column. As you answer each question, you must
provide support or evidence that will enhance and empirically prove your
answers.Academic criminal justice articles or real-life criminal justice
findings that are found in journals or other academic sources must be used in
supporting your answers.Please use APA format for all cited sources, including
your reference page.
