Deviance

Deviance


Culture is comparative, not implicit. Deviance is a infraction of cultural norms. Deviations divided into two categories, one is formal deviance, the other is informal deviance. Formal deviance is a violation law, such as crime. Informal deviance is not breaking the law, but against cultural norms. Deviations may also appear in a format that representation to strengthen further their own characteristics, for example, tattoo. Society, suppressing the deviation or increasing deviation.

I think deviation is natural reaction about society and cultural norms. Of course, it will not good if it is extreme, but I think that's a natural phenomenon.
