All students are required to follow ASA rules for format and style. Cite all your sources using a conventional method (ASA style is the most conventional).

You must consult Criminological and/or Sociological journals and books for scholarly writing relevant to your topic. You should first explain the overarching view (either positivist or constructionist) and then the specific theories you are going to use. You are to write in third person. Do not write in first person (I, me).
