In many countries, it is not uncommon that depriving the freedom of criminals as punishment. Yet, some argue providing better education may be a more effective solution. As far as I am concerned, I disagree with the abovementioned statement, as both education and imprisonment are effective in terms of preventing potential crimes, while prisoning criminals also exerts positive effects in terms of fairness and deterrent effects.  

To begin with, offering better education strengthens individuals’ competitive edge which consequently increases their job opportunities. This measure, from a long-term perspective, will effectively lower the criminal rate, as lower unemployment rate tends to cause higher criminal rates. Furthermore, good moral education helps people, especially the young, to develop upright moral values such as honesty, fairness and respect for others. Most importantly, they will learn how to tell right from wrong. Therefore, education plays a paramount role in preventing crimes.

Besides proper education, prisoning is also effective to nip crimes in bud. Imprisoning criminals for what they have committed shows a powerful deterrent against potential crimes. Deprived of freedom, on the other hand, most of them may be remorseful for their previous actions, which could decrease the future reoffending rate. Also, punishing criminals for malicious acts according to the law shows judicial fairness for victims.

From what we have discussed above, it is safe to conclude that the crucial role of education for prevention of crimes is undeniable, and it also benefits teenagers who cannot tell right from wrong. Meanwhile, prison also shows its effectiveness in the aspects including deterrence and justice.
