In his book crime and everyday life, marcus felson (2002) expands on "routine activity theory" as an explanation for why crime occurs. according to this theory, crimes happen when three elements come together: (a) a motivated offender, (b) an attractive victim, and (c) absence of capable guardians. select one property crime and one violent crime. apply routine activity theory to explain examples of each. are you using theory in an inductive or deductive way?

Property crime refers to the fact that an individual or group of individuals use force in order to obtain some benefit that would be monetary in the majority of cases

Explanation:

Property crime refers to the fact that an individual or group of individuals use force in order to obtain some benefit that would be monetary in the majority of cases, one example of this kind of crimes would be the robbery of a cellphone, in which the victim, a young female, is walking alone in the downtown streets at 5:30 am, really early in the morning in order to go to the workplace. The burglar is a drug addict, whose drugs are over at that time, and he takes advantage of the situation, an indefense woman and the police is not close to the scene. Therefore in this case, it is possible to see how the three necessary factors according to the routine activity theory meet: (a) a motivated offender, (b) an attractive victim, and (c) absence of capable guardians.

The second case, the violent crime, refers to the instance in which the offender wants to hurt his victim in a certain way. One example of this kind of crime could be when a kidnapped occurs, the criminal studies his victim in advance because he wants to politically pressure his adversary by kidnapping his daughter; all of this in order to force him organizing everything for his political party to lose the next elections. Once the elections have been completed and the criminal achieves his goal, he also asks his adversary to withdraw completely from politics and then releases his daughter. In this case, the criminal uses suffering as pressure to achieve his mission and it is possible to analyze as well as the 3 stages mentioned by "routine activity theory" (a) a motivated offender, (b) an attractive victim, and (c) absence of capable guardians;  are carried out.

As given in the statement of the problem,according to Marcus Felson(2002),this theory states that crimes happen when the three elements combine,so basically it is deducting an analysis so this is an deductive way to solve the problem.
