Essay due Friday 8th February
Item B
Some sociologists define globalisation as an increasing interconnectedness
in the world. Globalisation is multi-causal, and there are a number of key
processes and events that may have aided its development, including:
technological innovation
global crises
the end of the Cold War
the growth of transnational organisations
the expansion of free trade.
Views on the impact of globalisation on crime vary. Globalisation has led to
changes in the opportunities to commit crime. This has meant increases in
some types of crime such as fraud, and new crimes such as cyber crime.
Using material from Item B and elsewhere, assess the view that the process of
globalisation has led to changes in both the amount of crime and the types of crime
committed. (21 marks)

BBC News report
Please watch the link below when off the school site. It is a BBC report on the rape victim who died in India just after Christmas. It also shows the public outcry and protest it generated. This is a good example of how the media can over empathise a crime and distort the reality of crime
