Description
This highly successful reader presents the interactionist approach to the study of deviance, examining deviance as a social phenomenon that consists of a set of interpretations and social reactions.
The interactionist perspective focuses on issues such as how people typify one another, how they relate to one another based on these typifications, and the consequences of these social processes. This perspective helps student understanding of the sociology of deviance, and also of social processes.
