Abstract
It has been recognized that a basic distinction should be made between the etiology of crime as a social phenomenon inherent in a given society and the process by which a certain individual becomes a criminal or commits a criminal act. With the development of the formal school of sociology, which was mostly concerned with forms of human interaction, more at? tention was given to the phenomenon of crime on the social level. The con? cept of conflict, which is one form of interaction, was thus utilized by some American sociologists to explain the differential crime rates in given com? munities.
