David Hargreaves
When originally published this book reported the first major application of ?labelling theory? to deviance in classrooms. The authors explore the nature of classroom rules, show how they constitute a pervasive feature of the classroom, and examine the ways in which teachers use these rules as grounds for imputing ?deviance? to pupils. A theory of social typing is developed to show how teachers come to define certain pupils as deviant persons such as ?troublemakers? and several case-studies are used to document this analysis. Finally, the teachers? reactions to disruptive classroom conduct are examined as complex strategic attempts at social control in the classroom. The book has a double focus on deviance theory and the process of teaching.
