About Deviance

Definitation: The violation of rules and norms.

Functionalist Perspective: Emile Durkhiem's theory (1893/1933, 1895/1964) Crime is functionanal part of society. And it contributes to the social  order.

  • Deviance clarifies moral boundaries and affirms norms.
  •  Deviance promotes social unity.
  • Deviance promotes social change.
