1. Normal is the average of deviance. Rita Mae Brown 

2. As in other forms of enforcement, deviance which has taken place once is assumed capable of repetition.

3. Some scholars define crime as deviance from a social consensus of permitted behaviour.

4. Where the deviance provides for the development of social relationships between rule-enforcer and rule-breaker, enforcement is directed towards compliance.

5. Most sociologists of deviance have been so fascinated by the processes of defining deviance and becoming deviant that they have got over-excited.

6. In discussing deviance here, no moral judgment is implied save in one respect.

7. Regulatory deviance rarely possesses the emotive properties of many traditional crimes.

8. But the modern sociology of deviance is a rather special case, as I shall show in Chapter 7.

9. Where deviance has a categorical, unproblematic quality, a penal response is triggered.

10. Deviance Deviance is a much wider and more vague concept than is crime, and is therefore less easy to define.

11. We saw too the marked trend to disavow deviance amongst the women whose personal histories are discussed in Chapter 2.

12. Lemert's concept of secondary deviance perhaps represented the most thorough resurrection of the criminological concern with the criminal justice system.

13. The new deviance writers were naturally anxious to disengage themselves from association with such conservative goals.

17. We might even go so far as to say that amplification of deviance among one group rather than among another could simply be due to chance.

18. Data on breaches of the taboo in small-scale communities are sparse and largely considered as cases of individual deviance.

19. Some problems in stratification theory and the theory of deviance are mentioned above.

20. But it would be hazardous to assume that prominence and deviance are simply subjective and objective aspects of the same phenomenon.

21. At a rather more humble level of philosophical sophistication, sociologists of crime and deviance have built their theories on similar suppositions.

22. But the main concern of these works is to inhibit legal deviance rather than to encourage legal competence - whatever that may be.

23. These examples suggest that there is a possible principled basis for the distinction between semantic and syntactic deviance.http://sentencedict.com

24. Previously many historians perceived crime as abnormal and peripheral, fit only for study by specialists in deviance.

25. Are there alternatives to the modifying or repackaging strategies which aim to reduce deviance?

26. It is, of course, perfectly possible for a sentence to exhibit semantic and grammatical deviance simultaneously: 7.

27. But the invisibility of women in the sociology of deviance is not simply a mirror of reality.

28. Prompted largely by developments in psychiatry, a change occurred in the very definition of deviance.

29. Examples have been widely attested of learners who exhibit correct performance on certain forms, and then lapse into deviance later on.

30. Its contribution was to concentrate on factors of the criminal justice system that control the natural human tendency towards deviance.
