structural-cultural perspective  

Définition

  • In the social sciences, specifically criminology, the structural-cultural perspective is an alternative theoretical model that explains how social problems in Black communities are the result of structural-level inequalities and dysfunctional cultural response patterns. This emerging theory introduces the role of race in creating structural constraints that are systematically embodied in community-level contexts and attribute to high crime rates within the African American community.
