OverviewCriminology is the study of crime and criminals, including the causes, prevention, correction, and impact of crime on society. Since it emerged in the late 1800s as part of a movement for prison reform, criminology has evolved into a multidisciplinary effort to identify the root causes of crime and develop effective methods for preventing it, punishing its perpetrators, and mitigating its effect on victims. The focus of modern criminology is criminal behavior and the contributing biological and sociological factors that cause rising crime rates. Just as society has changed over criminology's four century-long history, so too have its theories. Nowadays, the police often use modern theories of criminology to catch the crime.
