Abstract

The term 'deviance' entered the sociological vocabulary in about 1950, and became an umbrella concept encompassing diverse activities and behaviours, including mental illness, crime, juvenile deliquency, drug use, and non-marital sexual relations (Best 2004). This diverse coverage has been a strength as well as a weakness for the sociology of deviance.
