    INTRODUCTION :-

    Generally, 'crime' are used for an act punishable by law. Hence here the English
    word 'Crime' is used as a synonym for 'crime'. The scientific study of crime or
    crime is known as criminology. Hence it is imperative to understand the meaning
    and scope of criminology. According to Dusham, crime is a "social fact" as noted
    by Mike etc. scholars in the book on "Crime and Society". It is common and
    universal in various forms in all societies. Dukheim has shown the inevitability of
    'crime' in one way or another. According to him there is no society which does not
    face the problem of 'criminality' . Forms of crime vary, criminal behavior is not the
    same everywhere, but in every society we have people who engage in punishable
    behavior. Perverse forms of crime emerge when crime rates become abnormally
    high. The situation is considered normal until the crime rate rises to a certain
    extent, but when it rises to a certain extent, crime becomes a problem in the
    society

    IMPACT ON SOCIETY :-

    Empirical research confirms only some of this wisdom. Crime relates as expected
    to house prices, neighborhood satisfaction, and the desire to move. Crime not
    only affects economic productivity when victims miss work, but communities also
    are affected through loss of tourism and retail sales. Even the socalled victimless
    crimes of prostitution, drug abuse, and gambling have major social
    consequences.Crime is a major part of every society. Impacts of crime and related
    problems on neighborhood viability may be contingent on personal, historical,
    and locale-specific factors. Its costs and effects touch just about everyone to some
    degree. The types of costs and effects are widely varied. In addition, some costs
    are short-term while others last a lifetime. Of course the ultimate cost is loss of
    life. Other costs to victims can include medical costs, property losses, and loss of
    income. Thus, the above things can be seen to have an impact on the society and
    the people living in the society by committing crime in the society. Apart from
    this, some of the following impact can be seen on the society.

    REPORT :-
    Criminal behavior can have a significant impact on society and communities. Here
    are some potential effects:

    1. Fear: Criminal behavior can create a sense of fear among people, both inside
    and outside their own homes. This fear can affect their daily lives and routines.

    2. Economic Impact: Areas with high crime rates may see higher home insurance
    premiums and lower property prices. This can make it difficult for homeowners to
    sell their property and can lead to a lower standard of living.

    3. Desensitization: In communities where crime is frequent, people may become


    desensitized to it. This can be exacerbated by media saturation with crime reports,
    which can normalize criminal behavior.

    4. Social and Economic Costs: High levels of crime result in more victims, leading
    to increased social and economic costs. These can include the costs of medical
    care for victims, lost productivity, and the need for greater security measures.

    ACTION PLAN :-

    Criminal behavior is a pervasive problem that has far-reaching consequences on


    society as a whole. This issue has been explored in the short story "The Rattrap"
    by Selma Lagerlof. In this story, a tramp named Edla offers kindness and hospitality
    to a man who has committed crimes in the past, leading him to reassess his
    actions and their impact.

    The story highlights the idea that criminal behavior not only affects the individual
    committing the crime, but also has a ripple effect on society. The criminal in the
    story is described as a "rattrap" that preys on the vulnerable and weak, luring
    them into a life of crime. This parallels real-life situations where criminals can trap
    others in a cycle of violence and criminal activity.

    The impact of criminal behavior on society is profound. It can lead to an increase


    in fear and mistrust among community members, as people worry about their
    safety and security. This can create a cycle of fear that perpetuates criminal
    behavior, as individuals turn to crime in order to protect themselves or their loved
    ones.

    Furthermore, criminal behavior can have economic consequences on society. It


    can lead to a decrease in property values, an increase in insurance premiums, and
    a drain on government resources as law enforcement agencies work to combat
    crime. This can create a cycle of poverty and disadvantage, as communities
    struggle to recover from the impacts of criminal behavior.

    In order to address the impact of criminal behavior on society, it is crucial to


    develop a comprehensive action plan that focuses on prevention, intervention,
    and rehabilitation. Prevention efforts can include education programs that teach
    individuals about the consequences of criminal behavior and provide alternatives
    to crime. Intervention efforts can include mental health and substance abuse
    treatment programs that help individuals address the underlying causes of their
    criminal behavior. Rehabilitation efforts can include reintegration programs that
    help individuals re-enter society and become productive members of their
    communities.

    In conclusion, the impact of criminal behavior on society is significant and far-


    reaching. It is important to develop a holistic approach to address this issue,
    focusing on prevention, intervention, and rehabilitation. By working together to
    combat criminal behavior, we can create safer and more vibrant communities for
    all members of society.
