Answer to Question 1

Moral panic is a fear that grips a large number of people that some evil threatens the well-being of society, followed by hostility, sometimes violence, toward those thought to be responsible. The most famous moral panic was the fear of witches in Europe resulting in the Inquisition. Sexual abuse in day care centers gripped the nation in the 1980s. Rumors of missing children being used as satanic sacrifices was also popular in the 1990s. In the case of the Inquisition, a fear of witches was the common threat for the time. Child molesting is one of the most heinous crime of the late twentieth century. The perceived threat of devil worship has also been a popular topic to explain crime, deviance, and delinquency.
