DEVIANCE
Conflict perspective

Why do people in less power or lower classes usually are concidered deviant if comitted a crime?
Usually people that commit crimes are or in desperate need of economic support or have low self asteem and usually tehy are less fortunate wether it is in power or social class
Functionalist perspective
Strain Theory: Views the deviance as the natural outgrowth of the values, norms and structure of society
PAUSE!!!! This theory is it true?
Not everyone in society has access to legitimate means to be able to have a job or have a life and society then judges their behavior!!
Those people that are judged fall victims for anomie: it is the situation that arises when the norms of society are unclear or no longer applicable. It leaves the individual without any rules or guidelines on how to behave thus causing confusion for the individual and for the society
Interactionist perspective
2 main theories
control theory: deviance as a natural occurrence. Control theorists say that if a person is well integrated into society they are more likley to conform. However, if people are more distant they are more likely to become deviant- PEOPLE WITH STRONG SLEF CONTROL ARE MORE CONFORMED.
cultural transmission theory: Deviance is a learned behavior. By integrating yourslef with people norms and values are being transmitted. SO if you socialize with deviant people you are more likely to be deviant
