Crime and Deviance
The study of Crime and Deviance is one of the key areas of sociological research. Using documentary sources, and accounts from criminals, victims and sociological experts, this programme traces the development of sociological thinking on crime and deviance from strain and subcultural theories through interactionism and radical theory to the latest theories of crime control. It also illustrates how the study of crime and deviance can be linked to broader issues in sociology.
