Society's response to crime has changed over the past century. The approach of rehabilitation in the 1960s has gradually been replaced with a "get tough on crime" approach, bringing in mandatory sentencing laws and long prison sentences. Regardless of the approach, crime continues to be a problem, and recidivism for some crimes and some offenders remains high. In this assignment, you will explore society's response to crime and different concepts of justice.
