Answer to Question 1

Answer: Answers should define the legal perspective of crime as human conduct in violation of the criminal laws set by the government. Answers should address some of the following limitations discussed in the textbook: yielding moral high ground to powerful individuals with influence on the law; that social, ethical, and individual significance influence immoral forms of behavior; and that the legalistic definition also suffers from lack of recognition that formalized laws have not always existed.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Answers should explain the two contrasting perspectives now popular in American society: social problems perspective and the individual responsibility perspective. Examples may vary
