Student Handbook to Sociology: Deviance and Crime

The establishment, maintenance, and enforcement of the rules of social behaviour are of fundamental concern for sociologists. Deviance and Crime is a brand-new, full-colour guide that examines the definition and violation of various types of codes of conduct, including laws, moral codes, and cultural norms of etiquette. This comprehensive resource offers a balanced approach to the field by addressing crime and deviance together and by providing both theoretical insights and concrete information about specific forms of criminality and deviancy.
