THEORISTS
Quinney - Powerful translate their wants and interests into criminal policy
Salmi - Violence narrowly equated to murder / war but means psychological / physical integrity threatened
Law has narrow focus on street crime
Crimes of the past in UK no longer crimes here but may be elsewhere eg homosexual acts, punishable by death elsewhere in extermist response
Hillyard & Tombs - many types of harm eg living in poverty / cultural exclusion not central in crime policies
Michael & Adler - Most precise definition is legal 'prohibited by criminal code'
Individualises crime, focus on interpersonal violence not faceless corporate crime
