According to the "conflict model of social control", the powerful in society define what behaviors are criminal.
Social conflict refers to the struggle for organization or power in the society. Social conflict or group conflict happens when at least two on-screen characters contradict each other in social cooperation, correspondingly applying social power with an end goal to accomplish rare or contradictory objectives and keep the rival from achieving them. It is a social relationship wherein the activity is arranged purposefully to do the on-screen character's own particular will against the obstruction of other gathering or parties.
