I’m working on a criminal justice discussion question and need an explanation to help me learn.

Social process Theories, like social learning theory, differential association, and labeling Theory links interpersonal relationships and learning with crime. Social Structure theories emphasize poverty, lack of education, and lack of conformity to traditional values, as the primary causes of crime. Which do you think more Accurately explains crime and why?
