What is the example of criminal deviance and non criminal deviance?
Criminal deviance is when a person breaks a law. A law can be considered as a norm that is considered so significant it has been codified, deviant behaviour is violations of norms. For example, murdering someone. Non-criminal deviance is when a person violates a social norm, but does not necessarily break a law in doing so. They could simply be breaking a folkway or more. Non-criminal deviance is met with less serious social sanctions then being arrested. Sanctions would include things like people thinking you're weird, or people being offended by your behaviour. For example, wearing a clown costume to the mall.
If deviance is behavior that violates social norms and societal rules, and criminality is behavior that breaks formal criminal laws, should deviant behavior be treated differently than criminal behavior in the criminal justice system?
In general, not always, society's laws and regulations are created to minimize deviant behavior. More specifically we have: When the deviance is addressed by law and order, it is by definition a crime. And anyone convicted of such behavior is a criminal. But when it's not addressed by law and order, we only have social pressures (e.g., shaming) to control it. And anyone performing such behavior is not a criminal, but they might become social outcasts. And finally society might simply ignore the deviance as being harmless, for example, and let it go on. In this latter case, if the deviance persists long enough society might morph into accepting that ignored deviance as a norm and no longer a deviance.
Primary and secondary deviance?
Edwin Lemert developed the idea of primary and secondary deviation as a way to explain the process of labeling. Primary deviance is any general deviance before the deviant is labeled as such. Secondary deviance is any action that takes place after primary deviance as a reaction to the institutions. When an actor commits a crime (primary deviance), however mild, the institution will bring social penalties down on the actor. However, punishment does not necessarily stop crime, so the actor might commit the same primary deviance again, bringing even harsher reactions from the institutions. At this point, the actor will start to resent the institution, while the institution brings harsher and harsher repression. Eventually, the whole community will stigmatize the actor as a deviant and the actor will not be able to tolerate this, but will ultimately accept his or her role as a criminal, and will commit criminal acts that fit the role of a criminal. Primary And Secondary Deviation is what causes people to become harder criminals. Primary deviance is the time when the person is labeled deviant through confession or reporting. Secondary deviance is deviance before and after the primary deviance. Retrospective labeling happens when the deviant recognizes his acts as deviant prior to the primary deviance, while prospective labeling is when the deviant recognizes future acts as deviant. The steps to becoming a criminal are: # Primary deviation. # Social penalties. # Secondary deviation. # Stronger penalties. # Further deviation with resentment and hostility towards punishers. # Community stigmatizes the deviant as a criminal. Tolerance threshold passed. # Strengthening of deviant conduct because of stigmatizing penalties. # Acceptance as role of deviant or criminal actor.

How are crime and deviance related Do they represent the same actions?
Crime refers to actions that violate laws and are punishable by the justice system, while deviance refers to actions that violate social norms. Not all deviant acts are criminal, but some deviant acts are criminal. So, while crime and deviance are related in that they both involve behaviors that are outside the norm, they are not the same as crime specifically refers to breaking the law.
