WGS 447 - Women and Crime

1 semester, 3 credits-

An in-depth look at a seemingly rare phenomenon-the participation of women in crime. First seen only as victims of crime, increased attention has focused on women as criminal offenders and found that their participation in crime both mimics and differs from that of men. In addition, although the roles of crime offender and crime victim overlap generally, the connection between victimization and offending is particularly strong for women. This course examines women as criminal offenders AND victims, and examines the complex pathways between these roles. Same as SOC 447. Previously WMS.
