SOCI 262 - Social Deviance

This course focuses on the ways in which deviance and normalcy are socially constructed. It examines how deviance is related to social norms and how norms come into being. Deviance is viewed as a social process of interaction and relation that derives from the social structure and has consequences for it. Various forms of deviance are also considered in terms of contemporary social theory and research.
