Social Control in Canada: Issues in the Social Construction of Deviance
Bernard Schissel
This text is based on the assumption that nothing is inherently deviant, but that what is regarded as deviant is the result of socio-historical context. It focuses on five social categories in which it discusses how definitions of unconventionality are formed and how they influence control.
