Dr. S.R. Myneni’s Criminal Sociology approaches crime as a social phenomenon — the sociological counterpart to criminal psychology, and a distinctive elective for students interested in why crime patterns form the way they do. It develops the sociological theories of crime — strain, differential association, subcultural, control and labelling theories — and examines crime in its social context: the relationship between crime and social structure, class, urbanisation and social change, organised and group crime, and the social response to deviance.
The Indian dimension — caste, community and crime, the sociology of specific offences, and the social factors in the criminal-justice response — gives the theory local grounding. The 2022 edition sets out the settled framework. A thoughtful elective for criminology students bridging sociology and criminal law.
