    Answer:

    Strain Theory

    Explanation:

    Strain theory is a criminology and sociology theory developed in 1938 by Robert K. Merton. It states that society puts pressure on individuals to achieve socially accepted goals (such as the American dream), though they lack the means. This leads to strain which may lead individuals to commit crimes, like stealing, selling drugs or prostitution as a means to gain financial security. The strain could be structural or individual.
