Answer:

Innovation.

Explanation:

Merton's strain theory asserts that society or social structures levies pressure on individuals to conform to the socially accepted goals despite their lack of resources and this leads them to commit crimes.

As per the question, 'innovation' takes place when the individuals accept the cultural goals of the society but they deny the traditional or authorized means of achieving these goals.

Deflation affected the Dust Bowl in the 1930s by
maw [93]
Lowering the land. The Dust Bowl affected Iowa by blowing strong gust towards West/Central Iowa. It caused food shortages and caused many farmers to abandon their homes and head to the west. They could not eat because there was so much dirt in the food. People were wasting their money on food when they wouldn't even eat it. They had to kill jackrabbits by capturing them in a fence and people would hop over, kill them, and then eat them afterwards. If you would like to read a fascinating book about the Dust Bowl era, try The Worst Hard Time: The Untold Story of <span>Those Who Survived the Great American Dust Bowl. It read like a novel but is sadly true.

Mary Sabo suffered injuries in an automobile acci­dent caused by Daniel Hoag, an intoxicated driver. Hoag had just left Peoples
Triss [41]

I think the summary judgement would be inappropriate in this case

Summary judgement is entered by the court if the plaintiff does not have sufficient evidence that the defendants actually do what they're accused of before moving to trial.

On this case, There is a strong proof that peoples restaurant is aware of Hoag's alcoholism : <u>intoxicated</u>

This mean that sabo can proof that the bar know hoag is an alcoholic and had served enough amount to hoag to get him intoxicated.

This mean that Sabo's case is strong enough to be brought to the trial. keep in mind that  Sabo is unlikely to win the trial since the restaurant does not directly involved in the accident. but we can definitely say that summary judgement would be inappropriate in this case.
