Abstract

conflict theory has developed throughout the course of the twentieth century as a principle theory for better understanding the development of criminal behavior. Although conflict theory directly links criminal behavior to the development of larger social inequities, research on this paradigm clearly demonstrates that this theory has only been widely examined in the context of the philosophical understanding of social discourse. Through a careful consideration of the definition of conflict theory, its benefits and drawbacks and its application to the larger framework of understanding criminal behavior, this investigation clearly demonstrates that conflict theory is difficult, if not impossible, to institute in the context of practical application in the criminal justice system.
