There is an age-old debate on which method is more effective in reducing crime and increasing public safety: Incarceration of offenders (Deterrence) or Rehabilitation of offenders. Numerous studies have been conducted over the years on each of these strategies, in order to answer the fundamental question – What causes criminal behavior in the first place?
Which philosophy do you hold personally? Do you believe the best approach is to simply lock up criminals, keeping them from doing more harm and deterring them from re-offending? Or is the best approach to limit sentencing (punishment) and focus more on structured rehabilitation programs, designed to deal with the underlying causes of the deviant behavior? Or maybe you believe it is a combination of both approaches that is most effective? Please elaborate and support your assertions with the required text as well as other scholarly sources.
Include references and plenty of in-text citations to show where you get your information.
