Focal Concern Theory posits that individuals engaging in criminal activities become part of a subculture within their community. This subculture constitutes a distinct culture within the broader societal framework, complete with its own set of rules and values known as focal concerns. By comprehending these focal concerns—essentially the core principles and priorities of these subcultures—one can gain valuable insights into the attitudes and behaviors of the individuals involved in criminal activities. Understanding these underlying principles is instrumental in predicting and comprehending the actions and motivations of offenders within these subcultures.
