He sounds like that school counselor Mr. Mackey on South Park. Ummm Okay…

I love you Dad

Always Remembered and Never Forgotten

This man has compassion, even though he deals with the planned death of a person, you can see he has empathy.

You probably murdered more people with the death penalty you supported then you the people you executed. I have no sympathy for you.

"alkohole"

He sounds like a South Park character

The heck-kinda spring break is actually supervised in college? Please, I don't even drink and I'm not supervised on my trips

Interesting!

Dr. Agnew's "Story Line" theory has practical application in all social settings, whether this involves mature criminal or delinquent activity, or activities deemed deviant but not necessarily statutorily proscribed in other socially based settings such as the work place, school, home, etc. In essence there is a trigger, event, or situation that deviates from the norm that places pressure on an individual to deviate from socially acceptable behavior in order to resolve the issue. The individual acts in the deviant manner, then (s)he and the "victims" or other parties involved deal with the consequences.

Confused about the title of this series considering he starts the presentation saying he won't talk about it..

AWESOME!!!

This proves that there is no such thing as a humane execution because the act of killing is inhumane. It only shows a cognitive dissidence when done only to come to haunt the person that caused the death of another.

thank you for sharing

Since America's current arranged system for capital punishment isn't a deterrent, perhaps (once sentenced) the execution could take place in the courtroom. (A small niche with ample drainage would do nicely.) Lynching? Long-distance head shots are more effective than the noose (we've moved beyond British traditions). Did executions play an effective part in the history of the UK? Yep. Do average Americans pity rapists and murderers? Do we wish to support them as they languish in prison? No to both. One bullet, one and done.

this theory is out of sorts completely

Thanks for exposing the scourge of wrongful convictions to help the actually innocent in prison. Fernando Bermudez, proven innocent afer over 18 years, national guest speaker on this issue.

Great lecture very glad my Juvenile Justice System professor made us watch it, and thanks to EKU for sharing the video. Great stuff.

thank you for posting.enlightening. :)

and society does not try and rehabilitate them. You know people can change, but it does cost money. But them again, it costs society a lot more when their not rehabilitated.

Bacevich is one of the very very few American historians who has the pills to say it like it is. He has full command of facts and speaks directly about them. That's why the imperial grease-ball called the mainstream media avoid him all they can.

@MPPRoX too right.

Thank you for putting these up! :)

Shut up Dr. Bernardine Dohrn , the stupid shall be punished as it should be to the crime and the time .......... is your earing big enough ?

the guillotine is actually much more humane than the electric chair, which basically burns people until they shit themselves, piss their pants etc and die, minutes later, if lucky.

very, very useful - thanks a lot for uploading!

@superdad1118 This was recorded by Eastern Kentucky University Fire Science professors 34 years ago. Reel sat on the self for years until was discovered and transferred from reel to digital format.

The problems is that when govenments make mistakes and injustice occurs, they almost never want to admit it or ever want those responsible to be punished. It their belief that they are above the law and should not ever be punished. Restore justice, first remove soeveriegn immunity, if you break the law , government official you go to prison and make them do twice the sentences. If we make the consequences of making a mistake severe enough you will put the fear in them and stop the bastards.

@poolerboy0077 A interation of those frustrated Marxian social engineers. This theory is an expedient to a decidedly left-leaning political vision, consistent with the Marxian notions of alienation and anomy.

But it is not an empirical fact that some are born with mental illness, and given the poverty of the science, and the degree to which scientism figures in present psychiatric doctrine and discourse, the opposite assertion cannot be satisfactorily defended, but no matter. I would take it that features of this strain theory would be a lot more easily implemented in a prison setting? What might be a good title to better flesh out "strain theory". Has the profession been receptive of Agnew?

I am not a sociologist or criminologist, however, I do have some background in both, by way of university coursework. When speaking of "rehabilitation", what means and ways are we speaking of? Is such rehabilitation undertaken in an institutional setting? It seems to me that these ivory tower types are simply restating the obvious: that environment figures importantly in one's psychosocial development. And so what? Is there anything new under the sun with Dr. Agnew's theoretical take?

@poolerboy0077 And all this verbiage to say what? That there be a response to socially engineer? Is it not easier to alter the individual and thereby alter the social, rather than the obverse. Isn't this what institutional psychiatry serves for the status quo? This is not a theory of behavior, so much as a political blueprint for greater state spending and intervention. Is it germane to ask whether this was publically or privately funded research?

@botulinotoxin "Short and Strodtbeck" from 1965 (!)

he reads his article published in the Journal of Research in Crime and Delinquency...

Could anyone tell me please what was the name of the scientist who wrote the case study of "Duke"?

I agree with some portions of Professor Agnew's opinion on Strain Theory, but I tend to lean towards Edward H. Sutherland's Social Disorganization Theory as the causation of crime and deviance. There will never be one solid answer as to "why" crime occurs.

Yes, I know the traits of the sociopath, not only due to my academic studies, I was truly in love with one. They have a marked emotional poverty and are very skilled at lying and manipulating their prey. Just ignore the vicious comments and continue with your life and what you are doing.

Thanks for uploading this lecture. It's great.

No shit they don't say they lost self-control. They don't even have boundaries or codes of conduct which qualifies as self-control! Humans are supposed to be parented to adhere to reason. Animals act on instinct, Mr. Mackey. Man is only man when he can use superior brain and reasoning skills to rise above instinct. Humans don't always succeed, but if we give up trying to rise above instinct, we give into our lusts and greed while justifying out actions any way we want to/can.

@EKUzombiE Who knows? Keeping the dangerous assholes around to study them in their natural habitats is dumb weak and dangerous. Some people are bred generation by generation this way and they are the plague of decent people in any social class.

@burntheship I agree. If children who have problems can be redirected through guardians who give a damn and discipline with explanations, then there may be hope. But this guy is a waste of time and flesh since he will be out of business if we start giving violent offenders the death penalty. He reminds me of Mr. Mackey on South Park...I wanna take aadvantage of this opportunity Mmmmkaaay. This guy is a tool.

excellent lecture...... I say the same thing all the time on here... nice chan keep the criminologists coming pls!!!!

love the fact that this channel showcases the thoughts of criminologists.... EXCELLENT channel keep up the great work!!!!

Hah, cool. I was sitting in on this very lecture during my sophomore year. Asked off work for it. His theory has some merit. Although really it's not HIS theory. Strain theory and Anomie could better be attributed to Merton. The only factor strain theory leaves out is the basic question of why and individual chooses the delinquent route to attain the product or social status, rather than the legitimate route.

Another Sociopath. Well then chaoticxquixotic, explain strain theory to me because this guy in the video is theorizing about something which doesn't even come close to becoming a acceptance theory...Criminal? the majority of criminals are Sociopaths, idiot.
