The theory is a type of restraint theory which assumes that humans are subject to inducements to crime (Schmalleger, 2015, p.92). Although some people can defy the “pushes” toward criminal acts, others cannot.

Nevertheless, with the increasing risk of more home-grown radical Islamic terrorist turning up on United States soil, great levels of distress have recently been expressed by Americans because of the looming risk of what could result from this prisoner radicalization. The recent uprising of the radical Islamic extremist group known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), has resulted in a significant rise in the number of annual domestic terrorism- related arrests.
