How does social regulation shape who is “deviant” and who is “normal”?
Critical Perspectives on Social Control and Social Regulation in Canada is an
introduction to the sociology of what has traditionally been called deviance
and conformity. This book shifts the focus from individuals labelled deviant
to the political and economic processes that shape marginalization, power and
exclusion. Class, gender, race and sexuality are the bases for understanding
deviance, and it is within these relations of power that the labels “deviant”
and “normal” are socially developed and the behaviours of those less powerful
become regulated.
This textbook introduces readers to theories and critiques of traditional
approaches to deviance and conformity. Using vivid and timely examples of
contemporary social regulation and control, this textbook brings to life how
forces of social control and marginalization interact with social media, sex
work, immigration, anti-colonialism, digital surveillance and social
movements, and much more. Theories and critiques are clarified with summaries,
definitions, rich illustrative examples, discussion questions, recommended
resources and test banks for instructors.
