QUESTION 1
Discuss the five (5) situational crime prevention strategies and substantiate your answers by
including your own relevant examples. In your own words, explain the so-called hidden economy
in relation to property crime.
ANSWER:
Title: Situational Crime Prevention Strategies
INTRODUCTION
Situational crime prevention (SCP) is a criminological approach that aims to reduce the opportunity
for crime by making it more difficult, risky, or less rewarding for potential offenders. Developed by
Ronald V. Clarke in the late 20th century, SCP focuses on the immediate environments in which
crimes occur, rather than on the offenders themselves. This essay discusses five key situational
crime prevention strategies and provides relevant examples to illustrate their application.
Additionally, the concept of the hidden economy in relation to property crime will be explored,
explaining how this informal economic activity contributes to criminal behaviour.
