The Anomie Theory states that the gap between the American Dream's goal of
economic success and the oppurtunity to obtain this goal creates structual strain. Norms weaken
and "Anomie" ensues, thus creating high crime rates. When other social institutions (such as the
family ) are weak to begin with or also weakened by the American Dream, the economic institution
is dominant. When such an institutional imbalance exits-as in the U.S.-then crime rates are very high.

Based upon the view that the fundamental causes are the social and ecomonmic forces operating within society.
All these theories are examples of why crime could happen.
