no single explanation for crime - reflects individual experience and choice which cannot be generalised in one theory
EDGEWORK
lying argues young men are more likely to engage in edgework - crimes on the edge of danger and safety eg. drive dangerously
EVALUATION
to argue criminality is a form of self expression fails to consider factors leading people into committing crimes and not everyone enjoys being a criminal
SOLUTION foucault - surveillance monitoring
key in controlling and changing criminal behaviour
sees surveillance as a form of disciplinary power, uncertain if you are being watched putting people off crime
