Crime can be defined as any offence that is punishable by law. The government makes laws which govern our behaviour, the police force prevents and detects crime, and the principal job of the criminal justice system (including courts and judges) is to enforce these laws and punish crime. Throughout the course of history, what constitutes a crime, ideas about the causes of crime and how criminals should be punished have changed.
