In every society, there is a range of behaviors that is exhibited by the population. Societies naturally takes the middle as "normal" leaving the ends to be either criminal or saintly.
This is to say that the criminal behavior is only bad because it is labeled as such by the surrounding society.
A good example is to imagine a society of saints. Even though by our standards they are all good, with in this society there would be a range of behaviors. In this society of saints, not covering ones mouth when sneezing could be looked at as criminal or deviant and therefore punishable.
Sociologists of deviance are likely to study crimes that challenge social norms and values, such as white-collar crime, hate crimes, and cyber crimes. They also focus on understanding the social construction of crime, deviance, and the labeling process in society.
An example of formal deviance is committing a crime such as robbery or murder, which violates specific laws and norms in society. Formal deviance is typically punished by the legal system through sanctions such as fines, imprisonment, or probation.

The way people respond to deviance has several implications with the law. If deviance is responded to morally, the deviant could spend time in jail. If the matter is approached criminally, the outcome is usually a psychiatric institution.
Social disorganization theory attributes increases in crime and deviance to the absence or breakdown of communal relationships and social institutions within a community. This theory suggests that when social bonds weaken, individuals are more likely to engage in criminal behavior as a result of the lack of social control and support.
Durkheim was one of the original theorists of sociology. He believed that deviance and crime could serve a positive function in society due to the fact that it clearly establishes moral boundaries, and lets people know what they should not be doing.
views of the public in relation to what people find behaviour that are deviant?
Deviance refers to behavior that violates societal norms, while crime specifically refers to behavior that violates laws. Some deviant behavior is criminal, but not all deviance is criminal. Both deviance and crime challenge social norms and can lead to societal consequences such as stigma or legal punishment.
Crime typically occurs once as a result of temporary circumstance. Deviance is an long term set of behaviors that is marked by mental illness.
