Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conflict theorists view crime as a result of power struggles between different social groups. They emphasize that those in power have the means and opportunity to commit corporate crimes while also enacting laws that criminalize certain actions of the lower social classes. Political crimes, such as corruption and abuse of power, are also of interest to conflict theorists. Therefore, both corporate and political crimes are a focus of conflict theory.
