deterrence programs  

Définition(s)

  • Deterrence programs rest on the belief that society can reduce crime by taking action that makes it more difficult for a criminal to commit a crime or by developing punishment that is so severe that an individual will not commit the crime so as to avoid the stated punishment. Philosophers during the latter part of the 18th century originated this belief. [Source: Encyclopedia of Social Problems; Deterrence Programs]
