Jeffery Ian Ross discusses the different types of political crimes committed by the state and crimes against the state. He discusses ways in which these types of criminal behaviors can be controlled and the different causes of these types of crimes. Some political crimes are used against the social and public order while others are just acts of violations used to "disturb" social behaviors. Political crimes follow a dynamic pattern, which examines political crime as that which results from the interaction between anti-systemic crime and state crime.

Using the system of terrorism as an example shows that the Israeli terrorism motivated Palestinian anti-systemic terrorism, which in turn led the Israeli security against the Palestinian people. This put the blame on all of the Palestinian people and not just on the anti-systemic terrorist group, conferring that everyone must take the blame for the group's actions. This can be summed up using the "macro" theory, which states, "the theories explain how environmental factors (including institutions, economics, political systems, and culture) affect individuals and groups" (Ross 21).
             There are a number of other theories described in this book, which explains vast reasons as to why the dynamics of political crimes exist and multiply. The opposing theory to the "macro" theory is the "micro" theory, which deals with people's differences, their mental states and interactions. This theory is closer in relation to the psychological theory, which delves deeper into the mental states and behavior patterns of individuals. Mostly in dealing with the behavioral patterns it is dealing with delinquent behavior, involvement in gangs, or other criminal acts. "In particular, Sutherland argues that criminal behavior is learned in a process of symbolic interaction with others...
