Question

Describe the labeling theory of deviance (be sure to mention all three stages). What is it about the labeling approach that makes it sociological? Lastly, discuss what type of public policy labeling theory would advocate in order to reduce the drug problem in the United States.

Answer 1

Answer: Is a criminal theory marked by the idea that criminal and criminal actions are socially constructed from the legal definition and actions of official social control and respect for misuse behavior.

Crime is not an inherent property of a subject, but a "label" attributed to certain individuals that society understands as delinquent. In other words, deviant behavior is that labeled as such. It is about how society classify people.

Making laws for a treatment and a better regulation of people can help.
