尽管很少一起考虑，但阶级和性别是当今最常被分析的犯罪相关因素之一。本文阐述并检验了一种新马克思主义的、基于阶级的、关于性别和犯罪的权力控制理论。运用这一理论和邦格尔半个多世纪前的一项预测，本文论证了性别与常见犯罪形式之间的关系随着阶级结构的下降而下降。此外，在这种关系最强的地方，可以通过考虑理论上预测的变量来在统计上消除这种关系。权力控制理论在很大程度上明确和解释了性别和犯罪的阶级结构，并通过这样做展示了这种关系的社会基础。
Though seldom considered together, class and gender are among the most frequently analyzed correlates of delinquency today. This paper formulates and test a neo-Marxian, class-based, power control theory of gender and delinquency. Using this theory and a prediction made by Bonger more than a half-century ago, the article demonstrates that the relationship between gender and common forms of delinquency declines with each step down the class structure. Furthermore, where this relationship is strongest, it can be statistically removed by taking theoretically predicted variables into account. A power-control theory does much to specify and explain the class struture of gender and delinquency, and in doing so it demostrates the social bases of this relationship.
