Critical Crim
Overview
Investigates inequality
Foundational thinkers like Karl Marx and Michel Foucault Marxism
Political economist and sociologist concerned with the rise of social
institutions during industrialization
Marx did not agree that societies operate from a consensus view and believed social
has a conflict view in relation to production
Marx examined with capitalist mode of production and explored the social
formation
These laws exploit people and distance them from the money made from their
labour. If people do not work in these oppressive industries the bloody
legislation will be applied to criminalize and punish them
Marxists argue
Laws are created by the powerful to control the working class
Those who acted in a manner contrary to the objectives of the powerful were
punished by the CJS
Law enforcement agencies are considered repressive state apparatuses that
ensure obedience from those who face unfair expropriation
The CJS is a tool for capitalists
Capitalism is dependent on hegemony - where the ideas of the dominant class
becomes the ideas of all
Using Marx
Quinney states that there are two Marxist positions
Instrumental
Institutions of the state are under the direct control of those
members of the capitalist class in positions of power
Structuralist
State institutions must function so as to ensure the viability of
capitalism more generally
