Feminist Criminology Concept Map Overview

Feminist criminology is a perspective that examines how gender shapes crime, criminalization, victimization and the justice system. It challenges earlier theories that studied mostly male offenders and ignored women's experiences. Its main branches cover how gender affects offending, how crime affects women and girls, and how the justice system treats each group.

  • Gender and offending: how social roles, opportunity and power shape criminal behavior
  • Women as victims: patterns of violence, abuse and exploitation against women and girls
  • Criminalization and policing: how laws and enforcement treat men and women differently
  • Key theories: liberal, radical, socialist and intersectional feminist approaches
  • Research and reform: data gaps, policy debates and proposals for change

Feminist Criminology Questions

Answers to common questions about the topic and about making your own map.

What is feminist criminology?

Feminist criminology studies how gender affects crime, victimization and criminal justice. It argues that traditional criminology often overlooked women and that gender relations shape both offending and responses to it.

What are the main feminist approaches to crime?

Common approaches include liberal feminism, which focuses on equal treatment, radical feminism, which focuses on patriarchy and male violence, socialist feminism, which links crime to class and economic power, and intersectional feminism, which considers race and other identities alongside gender.
