Long, confusing, and disorganized[edit]

This article rambles on and on. The article said there were 3 schools: Classical, Positivist, and Chicago, but Differential association (sub-cultural) was stuck in there at the same level as Positivist. Is Positivist part of Chicago? I reduced it by one level, but it still does not make sense.

And what about Social structure theories? Is that part of Chicago, or is it a fourth school? Comfr (talk) 05:44, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Question regarding first picture?[edit]

Although I merely skimmed this article, I was a bit confused about the first picture that shows up when reading the introductory. What do the three ladies have to do with the basic information/history of criminology?

May be a dumb question, since I did not closely read, but please give me some insight!

Where is the criticism section?[edit]

No reference to Foucault? Anarchists? In this page there is a severe lack of critical opinions. It's nothing more than propaganda. 79.32.30.14 (talk) 13:28, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
