Becker that social groups create deviance by making the rules whose infraction constitutes deviance, and the philosophies of Emile Durkheim that extreme economic variation results in deviance labeling.

Deviant Behavior: Treatment, Incarceration Or Criminal Insanity?
[ send me this essay ]
12 pages in length. It can readily be argued that each and every person represents one subculture or another – that is to say that while the masses as a whole represent the culture, the individuals who make up that culture in turn represent the subcultures. In this light of understanding, one can then surmise that everyone – at one time or another – displays deviant behavior. However, deviance that inflicts physical and/or psychological harm upon another human being is crossing the boundaries of acceptable behavior, which is when the time comes to determine appropriate corrective measures. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
