8. THEORIES OF COMPARATIVE THEORYTHEORIES OF COMPARATIVE THEORY
•

Alertness to Crime Theory – the people’s alertness to crime is
heightened as the society develops or progresses. As a result,
more crimes are reported which increases the demand for the
police to become more effectives at solving crime problems. It relates to “proactive policing” which refers to all policing
strategies with the goal of crime prevention or reduction that
are not reactive primarily on uncovering ongoing crime or on
investigating or responding to crimes once they have occurred.


Economic or Migration Theory – this theory supposes that labor
markets and economies are driven by trade and migration.
Migrants move from societies where labor is abundant and
wages are low, to societies where labor scarce, and wages are
high. As a result, crime id everywhere, most especially in over-
populated urban areas.
The economic theory of criminal behavior is an application of
the neoclassical theory of demand. Formalized by Nobel
Laureate Gary Becker in 1968, it stated that potential criminals
are economically rational and respond significantly to the
deterring incentives by the criminals justice system. They
compare the gain from committing a crime with the expected
cost, including the risk of punishment.

than simply the existence of criminal dispositions. Crime opportunity
theory spouses that offenders make rational choices, thus choose
targets that offer high reward with little effort risk. Along with higher
standards of living, victims become more careless of their belongings,
and opportunities for committing crime multiply.
