What theory in criminology states that are totally responsible for their behaviors and the stress in more on the effect of their felonious act than upon the criminal himself?

Labeling theory in criminology suggests that individuals are not inherently criminal but are labeled as such by society, which can lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy where individuals internalize this label and engage in further criminal behavior. This theory places more emphasis on the societal reaction to crime rather than solely focusing on the individual's actions.
