SOC205 Tutorial Assignment #5 Essay Topic Name: ____Hoi Wing (Ren) Ng____ Part 1: Which critical theory have you selected to write about in your comparative theory essay? Why? Include an intext citation in your description. [maximum 80 words.] I have chosen the critical theory of labelling theory for my comparative theory essay. This is because labelling theory emphasises the social construction of crime rather than innate biological features, providing a strong contrast to Lombroso’s Criminal Man theory (Newburn 2017). In contrast to Lombroso’s viewpoint, the labelling theory allows for a nuanced analysis of the ways in which society labels and responses contribute to the incarceration of people, underscoring the importance of social processes in the understanding of crime and deviance. Part 2: Using the ASA Style Guide, compile a “References” or “Works Cited” page that includes: The citation for the specific chapter related to the critical theory The citation for the relevant Lecture NOTE: Properly indent citations (use the hanging function) and organize in alphabetical order. Bryan, Timothy. 2024. “Class 4 - From Social Control to Labelling Theory.pptx” SOC205 Theories in Criminology. February 6.  Newburn, Tim. 2017. “Chapter 11: Interactionism and Labelling Theory.” Pp. 227–42 in Criminology . London ; Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group.
