This thesis not only challenges the binary thinking as it pertains to social work and charity, but argues that social work was established in Canada by religious groups, many of which were evangelical, such as the Canadian Salvation Army. Introduced to American social work theories and methods in the late nineteenth century, the Canadian Salvation Army incorporated the theory of "feeblemindedness," and the methods of casework and classification, into their traditional discourses on, and practices with, female sexual "deviants" in the early-twentieth century. From 1910 to 1940, there was a transition period between the dominance of evangelical charity and that of secular social work, in working with female sexual "deviants," throughout which evangelicals braided religious discourses with those of scientific social work. By 1940 secular social workers had won the battle for supremacy, and as a result, the dehumanization of sex workers and unmarried mothers increased as they went from being understood as victims/sinners who could be fully reclaimed, to biologically inferior and subjected to forced institutionalization and sterilization. iv Table of Contents Supervisory Committee

there is a terrible under-current of unclean vice with all its concomitant evils of ruined lives, desolated hearth-stones, prostituted bodies, decimated constitutions, and early dishonoured graves."1 They continued: "...our Canadian cities, fair and comely and Christian as they confessedly appear to be, bear upon their streets and hide beneath their immoral houses troops of girls – and many of them mere children – who are earning the wages of sin."2 Using discourse that was typical of late-nineteenth century evangelicals, the Salvation Army alleged that women were "falling" into sex work in increasing and alarming numbers, and it was their mission to do the work of God by rescuing these supposedly helpless and pitiable creatures. Throughout the nineteenth century and into the twentieth century, many religious groups, including the Catholic Church and a range of Protestant denominations, both evangelical and non-evangelical, directed social services for sex workers, unmarried mothers, and other female sexual "deviants" in Canada. This thesis focuses specifically on the work of Protestant evangelicals, one of the most active religious groups in the field of saving "fallen women." Understanding these women as victims and sinners who could be fully reclaimed through an acceptance of God, evangelicals established rescue homes in which they taught discipline, domestic skills, and the word of God. The Canadian Salvation Army, a leader in evangelical rescue work, boasted fourteen rescue homes across the country by 1910. Dominant narratives, both popular and academic, suggest that, at this moment of institutional expansion, social workers suddenly appeared and took over services for female sexual "deviants." Many 1"Our Rescue Home," The War Cry, 24 December 1887, 1. 2Ibid. 2 historians claim that social workers, armed with the doctrines of "science" and "secularism," transformed backward and inefficient religious-based social services into modern and progressive ones. These assertions may, however, simply be ploys to celebrate the advent of science and secularism and do not reflect the more complex dynamics that led to the rise of social work in Canada. Social work was largely introduced in Canada by evangelicals as part of their spiritual mission in the early 1900s. Influenced by the creation of social work in the United States, evangelicals incorporated American social work concepts and practices into their work in Canada long before secular social work was established. In the 1900s, the Canadian Salvation Army, for example, incorporated the American social work concept of "feeblemindedness" and the social work practices of classification and casework into their work with female sexual "deviants." These new concepts and practices did not replace traditional ones, but were integrated with them, creating a fusion of evangelical and scientific discourses. It was not until the 1920s that secular social workers formed a cohesive group in Canada due, in part, to the establishment

The heroes being offered by popular culture are teaching children that physical perfection, financial success, and fame are the most important goals in life. The morals and values presented by these heroes are often in direct opposition to the standards parents want to pass on to their children. So, while there is no shortage of heroes, there is a dreadful shortage of heroes worth emulating.

  • Sociological Theories of Deviance: Definitions & Considerations
    Sociological Theories of Deviance: Definitions & Considerations NCSS Strands: Individuals, Groups, and Institutions Time, Continuity, and Change Grade level: 9-12 Class periods needed: 1.5- 50 minute periods Purpose, Background, and Context Sociologists seek to understand how and why deviance occurs within a society. They do this by developing theories that explain factors impacting deviance on a wide scale such as social frustrations, socialization, social learning, and the impact of labeling. Four main theories have developed in the last 50 years. Anomie: Deviance is caused by anomie, or the feeling that society’s goals or the means to achieve them are closed to the person Control: Deviance exists because of improper socialization, which results in a lack of self-control for the person Differential association: People learn deviance from associating with others who act in deviant ways Labeling: Deviant behavior depends on who is defining it, and the people in our society who define deviance are usually those in positions of power Students will participate in a “jigsaw” where they will become knowledgeable in one theory and then share their knowledge with the rest of the class. After all theories have been presented, the class will use the theories to explain an historic example of socially deviant behavior: Zoot Suit Riots.

  • Deviance from Social Norms: Who Are the Deviants?
    Running Head: DEVIANCE FROM SOCIAL NORMS: WHO ARE THE DEVIANTS? This article was published in the Journal of Social and Political Psychology doi: https://doi.org/10.5964/jspp.v8i1.1134 The Social and Psychological Characteristics of Norm Deviants: A Field Study in a Small Cohesive University Campus Robin Gomila and Elizabeth Levy Paluck Princeton University Word count: 10,342 DEVIANCE FROM SOCIAL NORMS: WHO ARE THE DEVIANTS? Abstract People who deviate from the established norms of their social group can clarify group boundaries, strengthen group cohesion, and catalyze group and broader social change. Yet social psychologists have recently neglected the study of deviants. We conducted in-depth interviews of Princeton University upperclassmen who deviated from a historical and widely known Princeton norm: joining an “eating club,” a social group that undergraduates join at the end of their sophomore year. We explored the themes of these interviews with two rounds of surveys during the semester when students decide whether to join an eating club (pilot survey, N=408; and a random subsample of the pilot survey with 90% takeup, N=212). The surveys asked: what are the social and psychological antecedents of deviance from norms? The data suggest that deviance is a pattern: compared to those who conform, students who deviate by not joining clubs report a history of deviance and of feeling different from the typical member of their social group. They also feel less social belonging and identification with Princeton and its social environment. Students who deviate are lower in social monitoring, but otherwise are comparable to students who conform in terms of personality traits measured by the Big Five, and of their perception of the self as socially awkward, independent, or rebellious.

The study conceptualized and theorized deviance and mental health through the sociological, biological, and psychological dimensions. All theories agreed that deviant behaviour begins from childhood through old-age. This suggests a deviation from behaviour appropriate to the laws or norms and values of a particular society. This makes deviance to be relative, depending on the society and individual. Mental illness and Post-Traumatic-Stress-Disorder (PTSD) as the inflicted or labelled deviants are unable to cope. The behavioural aftermath of PTSD typically involves increased aggression and drug and alcohol abuse, which could lead to anxiety, depression, insomnia, plus memory and cognitive impairments or mental disorder. The paper recommends policymakers in collaboration with behavioural health specialists (Clinical psychologists), should focus on developing and implementing social learning preventive and reformative programmes through role playing, behaviour modification, social support system, and peer and group psychotherapy among others. Keywords: Conduct disorder, deviance, mental health, post-traumatic-stress-disorder, psychological trauma, I. INTRODUCTION The social understanding of the study of deviance and crime examine cultural norms; how they change over time, how they are enforced, and what happens to individuals and societies when norms are broken.

It is hard to imagine that we could be human—or sur- vive as a species—without making such distinctions. Th e sociology of deviance is devoted to studying the “bad,” “wrong,” and “weird” side of these divisions: what people consider immoral, criminal, strange, and disgusting. Deviance includes the broadest possible scope of such activities—not just criminal acts, but also any actions, thoughts, feelings, or social statuses that members of a social group judge to be a violation of their values or rules. Th is book provides a sociological understanding of deviance, as well as examines many of the major categories of deviance in contemporary American society.

  • Social Class and Deviant Behavior: Suggestions for Theoretical and Methodological Improvement
    SOCIAL CLASS AND DEVIANT BEHAVIOR: SUGGESTIONS FOR THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL IMPROVEMENT by CHARLES B. VEDDER Wichita State University Sociological theories which posit an inverse causal relationship between social class and deviant behavior are able to coexist with other sociological theories stressing a positive relationship between social class and deviance because of the present theoretical and empirical inability to distinguish between them. In order to resolve this dilemma, class-deviance theorists are advised to restrict their concern to behaviors that show promise of class lin~- age, to specify limiting conditions in the formation of propositions, and to entertain reasonable alternative ex- planations. Methodologists could also profit by employing m?ltiple measures of the class variable, by utilizin~ a more precise cutting point strategy with respect to class, and by using both self-report and official indicators of deviance. The following conclusion offered by Westie and Turk is justifiably pessimistic: 'Perhaps the most important contribution of' sociologists to the study of human behavior has been their demonstration that the significance of whatever variable is used in research depends upon the location of persons in social structures and the interaction among persons at the various levels of power and prestige characterizing such structures••••Criminologists alone have produced hundreds of studies attempting to deter­ mine and to explain the relation between social stratifica­ tion and the phenomenon of crime••••Neverthelsss, these re­ lations have not yet been established with precision, and explanatory propositions are found in the literature without adequate empirical data by which to evaluate them (1965: 456). Responsibility for the present obscurity concerning the relation between class and deviance variables does not rest solely on the shoulders of empirical research, Social Class and Deviant Behavior 189 however, but must be shared by current theoretical attempts at linking these variables.

  • Chapter Eight: Deviance and Social Control
    Chapter Eight: Deviance and Social Control Chapter Summary Sociologists use the term deviance to refer to any violation of rules and norms. From a sociological perspective, deviance is relative. Definitions of “what is deviant” vary across societies and from one group to another within the same society. Howard S. Becker described the interpretation of deviance as, “…not the act itself, but the reaction to the act that makes something deviant.” This coincides with the symbolic interactionist view. In some cases, an individual need not do anything to be labeled a deviant. He or she may be falsely accused or discredited because of a birth defect, race, or disease. Even crime is relative when interpreting the deviance of the actor. Deviance is based on adherence to and violation of norms. Human groups need norms to exist. By making behavior predictable, norms make social life possible. Consequently, all human groups develop a system of social control, which involves formal and informal means of enforcing norms. Those who violate these norms face the danger of being labeled “deviant.” Violators can expect to experience negative sanctions for the violation of norms. Members of society who conform to societal norms, especially those who go above and beyond what is commonly expected, receive positive sanctions. In some societies, such as the Amish, shaming is a common negative sanction that acts strongly as a means of social control, minimizing deviance. Biologists, psychologists, and sociologists have different perspectives on why people violate norms. Biological explanations focus on genetic predispositions, psychologists concentrate on abnormalities within the individual (commonly known as personality disorders), and sociologists look at social factors outside the individual.

  • Understanding Deviance: Connecting Classical and Contemporary Perspectives
    Understanding Deviance: Connecting Classical and Contemporary Perspectives Preface Tammy L. Anderson Acknowledgments Part 1: Classic and Contemporary Approaches to Deviance Section 1. Defining Deviance Introduction Tammy L. Anderson. 1. Rules for the Distinction of The Normal and the Pathological Emile Durkheim Durkheim defines deviance from a statistical standpoint, or by the prevalence of deviance in society. He seeks an objective criterion by which social phenomena can be rendered normal, or pathological and deviant. From this perspective, Durkheim claims to measure the condition of society. His approach to deviance is different from the moral and social reaction definitions of deviance included in this section. 2. Notes on the Sociology of Deviance Kai T. Erikson Erickson relies on morals, customs, and traditions that are often tied to religious doctrine to define deviance. His view is that deviance sets boundaries for acceptable behavior and strengthens solidarity among citizens. His approach breaks from Durkheim’s statistical view and is more in tune with Becker’s social reaction approach. 3. Definitions of Deviance and Deviance and the Responses of Others from Outsiders Howard S. Becker Becker’s work is considered a classic social reaction definition where deviance is anything people so label. He argues that deviance is not an objective fact, contrary to Durkheim’s position. Instead, Becker reasons, it is something people define and redefine through social interaction. 4. Defining Deviance Down Daniel Moynihan Moynihan’s article is a newer classic in the field of deviance that cautions against reclassifying unacceptable behaviors as acceptable, or trivializing their significance and impact. By moving away from objective standards for behavior and endorsing a core set of values, as Becker and Erickson propose, Moynihan believes society enters dangerous territory and compromises itself.
