"The long history of these two general schools of thought-criminal behavior as a product of social forces versus criminal behavior as a product of individual constitution-has been somewhat resistant to change, and even the titles of text about crime have historically reflected one or the other perspective. Texts titled âCriminologyâ tend to approach the study of crime from a macrosociological framework whereas texts titled âCriminal Behaviorâ often focus more on the micro-level dynamics of individual criminality."
