Street robbery offenders: Shades of rationality and reversal theory perspective

The article intends to draw attention to the selected aspects of motivation and the process of decision making in street robbery offenders. The author distinguishes three types of street robbers: ‘the rational’, the ‘bounded rationality’, and ‘the irrational’ ones. After a short characterisation of the street robbery as a specific type of crime, the article presents the definition of rationality within social sciences, followed by a reflection on the theory of rational choice, along with its applications and limitations. In the next part the reflections revolve around the theory of M.J. Apter, which – in the author’s view – creates encouraging perspective for the analysis of street robbers’ decision making process.
