Criminology : November 7

Grissom greets each student as they arrive, and asks for them to pass in their midterm. He hands out Holiday Revelry and Legal Control of Fireworks: A Study of Neutralization in Two Normative Contexts by Timothy Buzzell for students to read and review in class.

Discussion: In the paper above, a study is done surrounding the use of fireworks to support the theory that that holidays create "circumstances" of "periodic anomie" in which adherence to the law may be suspended by otherwise conventional persons. Why do you believe this is so?


Homework: Read this chapter on the Psychatric Aspects of Rick Assessment in preparation for Thursday's discussion.
