#17: Key terms in Crime & Deviance

Episode 17 sees Ben joined by Leanne to explain a whole bunch of key terms you'll come across when studying the sociology of crime & deviance. Amongst many other concepts, they look at: Situational crime, the social construction of crime, the criminal justice system, white collar crime, corporate crime, state crime and green crime. 

.

Each term is explained using simple language, easy to understand examples and a few recommendations of things to watch on Netflix alongside. They also talk a lot about sex, drugs and booze; why it's rude to eat all your dinner in China; and Ben reveals he knows a little too much about getting arrested (and not enough about how electricity works).
