Answer:

conflict theory

Explanation:

Conflict theory, first introduced by Karl Marx, is based on the theory that a society is always in conflict because of limited resources.

According to conflict criminology, capitalist societies are dominated by a wealthy elite who exploit and oppress others. The way such societies are organised ensure that those who are poor remain marginalized, oppressed and vulnerable. These poor and oppressed groups may sometimes resort to crime in order to gain wealth and support their family in order to survive.
