Answer 1

Freda Adler is described as one of the most distinguished criminologist. She contribted a lot through her works in the field of criminology and criminal justice. She focused more on female criminology. She argued female behaviour in connection with criminality do not related to their biology.

In her controversial theory - The Liberation Theory of Female Criminality, she predicited the rising crime rates among  women which is the result of success of women liberation movement. According to thi os theory the women liberation movement helped to increase the level of confidence among a major group of women to come forward and it provided them more opportunities to compete with men in various fields like politics, taking adventureous opportnities, doing physically risky job even for men it is difficult to do. All these opportunities and social and judicial spport received from every corner made them fearless to and more confident to take more advanced steps. Social medias also contributed a lion share for this uplftment of women. No doubt it should be appreciated by all means.

Even then there is a negative impact of this theory which we can't tolerate. We were people from the beginning had followed a certain level of culture and heritage which was prevailing here for centuries. A few decades back we know women did not have right to education. Sati system and child marriage were existed. Women had no leagal right to vote. Under such situation women had no opportnity to come out of their home, making their own individual groups or criminal groups or engage in any such activities criminal in nature.  

Lack of educational opportunities and information technology helped them only to have less leisure time which was not enough for them even to fullfil their  household responsibilities. But now a days the picture has changed every where. Joined famiies of decades back converted into small fmailies. House hold responsibilities reduced. They started getting more leisure time and most of the time people spent for using laptops and mobilephones. This provided them lot of informations about doing lot of activities.  

Large amount of movies and articles became available which helped them to fuel the very very few percentage of criminality nature which were hidden somewhere in their blood. Becuase of small family background and the fastest moving environment people can't find enough time to love each other or respect each other. On the other hand people do the habbit of running after power and to attain power they need more amount of money which is very difficult for a person to achieve during his life time even after doing how much amount of hardwork.

Under such circumstances the movies and otther articles which have criminal background comes to their mind to help them. Women, who are physicall weak compared to their men counter parts, but they did not want to accept the same by themselves,will think it is better to become criminal there by they can occupy more power, wealth or anything as they wish and they don't have to fear any body.  

In most of the cases the educational background, the demography, the society, the environment, etc, are having the major impact of criminology, especially among women folk. Hence the arguement of Freda Adler that Biology is not the main reason behind female criminology can be considered.
