Summary

Introduction

Whether they are crimes or violations, are basically attached to the dynamic conditions of people's lives who have a very complex background, which includes socio-cultural aspects as well as ideological, political aspects as well as the ability and effectiveness of state apparatus and society [1]. According to [2] empirical study, crimes committed by the lower classes (Street crimes) occur due to economic pressure from lower-class society, and because of the process of alienation which loosens social ties among its members. This is consistent with empirical research conducted by [3, 4] who found that there were deviations in the behavior of community members due to changes in structure and values as well as economic inequality.
