The plural form of criminology; different systems or approaches to studying crime.
Criminology comes from crime + -logy (Greek 'study of'), and criminologies is simply the plural, allowing discussion of multiple theories or schools of thought in crime studies.
Just like there are different criminologies—biological, sociological, psychological—history shows us that how we understand crime reflects what we believe about human nature at that moment.
