Summary:"In this newly revised and expanded second edition, author Lorne Tepperman explores theories of deviance and conformity by linking them to broader themes of sociology, including social organization, social control, cultural change, and social inequality. Using a multi-paradigm approach, he outlines the key theoretical perspectives - including functionalist, social constructionist (symbolic interactionist), conflict, feminist, and postmodern views - and investigates how each one differs in its thought and treatment of a range of behaviours, from violent crime to often underrepresented forms such as appearance issues and political crimes."--BOOK JACKET.
