SOC211H5 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Legality Of Cannabis, Thought Experiment, Premarital Sex
Document Summary
Soc211 s1 l1: deviance and social control: tutorials do exist. Will be given tutorial times later when we are better organized: final exam: it is not cumulative. Based on multiple choice, short answer, and possibly an essay: our last class will be dedicated to review and catching up (for study purposes), vitally important not to just copy slides! Slides will be sent later on bb: majority of study material will be from professors lectures as well as textbook. Whats deviant for one person may not be deviant for another. What is deviant in one situation, may not be deviant in another! Should sex work be fully legalized: majority of the class agreed that pot should be legalized. Reactivist definiton of deviance: there is no universal or unchanging entity that defines deviance. It occurs through the reaction of oth- ers: example: never picking up my dogs poo in public.
