This subject critically examines the major forms of crime which affect society today. In analysing such crime and society's response to it, the subject begins with an examination of the principles around which criminal laws are constructed and are said to operate. In this regard, the subject focuses not only on the law itself but also on its structures and institutions of control. Particular emphasis is placed on current law and order politics and the effect this has had on criminal law. To a certain extent the subject is also comparative, focusing in particular on crimes and social responses which are global in nature.
