TEST IV: ​ESSAY


1.WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CLASSICAL, NEO CLASSICAL AND POSITIVIST SCHOOL OF
THOUGHT? (15 POINTS)
The difference between those three is classical is a Christian thought tended to emphasize personal
responsibility for wrongdoing; requiring penitence by the criminal in exchange for salvation, or
forgiveness, by God. Philosophers expressed in their writings that the legitimate purpose of
punishment was to reform and salvage the erring sinner. The neo-classical criminology, which
flourished during the nineteenth century, had the same basis as the classical school-a belief in free
will. Neo-classical criminology continues the traditions of classical criminology within the framework
of Right-Realism. While the The positivist criminology was composed of several Italians whose
approaches differ to some extent, but they all agreed that emphasis in the study of crime should be
on the scientific treatment of the criminal, not on the penalties to be imposed after conviction. The
classical criminology, defining crime in legal terms, emphasized the concept of free will and the
position that punishment gauged to fit the crime would be a deterrent.

2. WHAT IS THE SIGNIFICANT OF THE LAW? (10 POINTS)

The law is important because it acts as a guideline as to what is accepted in society. Without it there
would be conflicts between social groups and communities. It is pivotal that we follow them. The
law allows for easy adoption to changes that occur in the society. It was also made to provide for
proper guidelines and order upon the behaviour for all citizens and to sustain the equity on the
three branches of the government. It keeps the society running. Without law there would be chaos
and it would be survival of the fittest and everyman for himself. Not an ideal lifestyle for most part.
