Deviant Behavior and Social Control Theory

In this essay, you should think deeply about both the deviance and the efforts at social control chronicled in the examples offered in class materials. Using the films Cheaters, The Interrupters, and The Released as case studies:•Discuss which theory you think is most helpful in explaining the causes of deviance in at least one of these films; use specific points from the readings and connect them to specific evidence/examples from the film to support your claims.•Using a different film as your focus, discuss the reactions to the deviance in that particular case. Which theory best helps us to understand these reactions? How well do you think the theory fits the cases? Use evidence from the readings and the film to support your points.•Consider what ultimately happens to the men in The Released. Which theory/perspective do you think best explains these outcomes? Explain your reasoning.•Finally, based upon the evidence from these films and Makes Me Wanna Holler by Nathan McCall and your understanding of the theories, draw some general conclusions about deviant behavior and social control. What do you know now that you did not know before you took this course? What ideas might you take with you going forward? Your argument should make use of theories, concepts, and readings from the entire class (including conflict, labeling, and critical theories) Essays should be typed using standard fonts and margins, double-spaced, and spell-checked. Sources from class should be cited within the text (author, page number). Essay exams should be no longer than 6 pages.
