Abstract

In this assignment we will discuss liberal and radical feminism in particular and we will outline the concerns of feminist criminology and how it has criticized male stream criminology. I will then outline the main features of post modernism and its critique of the attempt to be scientific about crime. Finally I will evaluate the various criticisms.
There are different group of feminists who all have observed that men are the dominant groups in society, and also have looked at the fact that privileged men make and enforce rules to women. This project from studentcentral.co.uk post modernity is a challenge to rationality, reason and science as the dominant forms of social explanation.[1]Feminism is a large body of social, political and philosophical thought that does not feature importantly in controversial criminological writing.
