Socialization
The claim that criminals are unsocialized, or under socialized individuals is not theoretically sound. Socialization is inevitable, and unless individuals are completely isolated, socialization will occur. The problem is not that individuals who commit criminal acts are "unsocialized", but rather that they are socialized in ways that encourage or support violent, or criminal behavior. Numerous theories attempt to explain this type of socialization, and we will look at these in this paper.

…showed last 75 words of 1141 total…frequently. As was stated in the opening paragraph, socialization is inevitable, unless an individual is cut off completely from society, which would be quite rare. Some people may view certain criminals as "unsocialized" because they do not rise to that person's definition of "socialized", but that certainly does not mean that the individual has had no socialization. There are so many theories that explain how society affects an individual's behavior that this claim seems ludicrous.
