focal concerns theory and labeling  

Definición

  • According to focal concerns theory, three focal concerns have an effect on sentencing decisions: blameworthiness of the offender, protection of the community, and organizational restraints and consequences. Minorities are more likely to be labeled negatively when appearing in court based upon these three focal concerns. [Source: Encyclopedia of Race and Crime; Focal Concerns Theory, Labeling]
