If you do not have legiimate means they create a deviant group. These people are rejected from society and form alternaive means to achieve goals (1) cliford shaw: cultural transmission successful deviants = role models. They have respect youth socializaion into deviant values (2) sutherland: diferenial associaion (we don"t associate with everyone; university students will socialize with other university students not gangs) Teaches people breaking the law is a good thing. Gangs teach you how to do things. Diferenial associaion teaches you how to become a criminal. Intensity: respect for the source (3) cloward & ohlin. Opportunity structure: job market is the problem. Lower classes: lose to middle class = status frustraion ---> subculture (4) albert cohen. Poorly educated = cannot compete with mc kids.
