Stanley cohen -> linked to howard becker, talks about the process of labeling people as deviant. Mods vs. rockers -> shows how deviance gets created, how something becomes an issue, these forces end up drawing a particular social control response. Mobs were the beatles type dude, snappy dressers, the rockers were rock listeners . Class divide, rockers were more of a working class. The brawl is not the thing to focus on, it s the reaction against the deviant kids . It has an interactionist feel to it, it s an interaction between the rule breakers and the rule makers. Disproportionate reaction -> the response is over and beyond what is required based on the issue.
