OCR Module: 2526 Crime and Deviance Approaches To Crime and Deviance Correctional Criminological V. Labelling Approaches Sociological And Non-Sociological

OCR Module: 2526 Crime and Deviance Non-Sociological Approaches 1. Focus on the biological, genetic and psychological characteristics of deviants. For example, deviants are seen as “psychologically-damaged” individuals 2. Deviants are qualitatively different to non-deviants. 3. Discovering the characteristics shared by deviants (and absent in non-deviants) will reveal the causes of crime. 4. Deviance is a quality of what you are and what you do. 5. Focus on individualistic explanations of deviance. 6. Deviance is an absolutist concept. There is something different about people who “break the rules” Crime and deviance have causes that can be discovered and isolated. Why are some people “predisposed” to rule-breaking behaviour? Focus is on how and why individuals break social rules. Deviance is not a quality of how people react to the behaviour of others – some forms of behaviour are always considered deviant…

OCR Module: 2526 Crime and Deviance Labelling Approaches 1. Focus on how people react to the (deviant) behaviour of others. 2. Deviants are not characteristically different to non-deviants. 3. Deviance is not a quality of what you do but a quality of how others react to what you do… 4. It is impossible to discover hard- and-fast “causes of crime” 5. Focus on explanations based on the social construction of crime and deviance. 6. Deviance is a relative concept. Deviants are people whose behaviour is labelled as “deviant” Everyone breaks social rules – deviants are simply people who are identified for special treatment… The same behaviour can be seen as deviant / non-deviant at different times and in different places. Deviance is socially-constructed; there are no simple “causes” of crime to discover… Focus is on how and why societies create social rules. What counts as deviance changes historically (over time) and cross- culturally (between societies).
