CRIM 205

: Crime, Media and Society
2025 Summer School (1250)
The relationship between crime and the media is complex and contradictory. This course investigates this relationship by encouraging students to develop an understanding of how the media help to influence the public views of crime and criminalisation. It will do this by focusing on media portrayals of crime and criminal behaviour, media effects, and theories of media and communication.
Subject: Criminology
Prerequisite: 60 points passed from BA courses
