Mini Review - Addiction & Criminology (2022) Volume 5, Issue 1
The relationship of criminology to various other disciplines.
Viewed from a legal perspective, the term crime refers to individual criminal actions and the societal response to those actions.

For example, criminologists have attempted to understand why some people are more or less likely to engage in criminal or delinquent behaviour.
