Indispensability of Free Will in Criminology
Journal Title: Annals of Bioethics & Clinical Applications - Year 2020, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Whether or not we have belief in free will has an impact on our moral behavior. Whether offensive behavior is a result of rational choice and free will, or offensive action is a result of biological, psychological and sociological factors is a continuing debate among criminologists, and this reflects how belief in free will shapes our understanding of crime causation.
