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.

To become a probation officer do you take four years of criminal justice in school first and then another course to obtain a bachelors degree or does the 4 years of college provide a degree?

Not knowing anything about how to become a probation officer I will offer up this... Generally, a Bachelors degree is obtained after 4 years of college study. Each state may have their own criteria on qualifications for probation / parole officers. But a degree in criminal justice is a good step towards that goal. Our program also leans towards the juvenile justice system. An associate degree can be earned in 2 years, with another 2 for a bachelor degree. Look towards online universities for flexibilty as schedules. An online school can also offer a program that is more focused on the degree in the begining and less on you taking general education classes. This is most apparent at the freshman level. www.fmuonline.com
