Use Ch. 6 to help you address TWO of the following:
1. There are many ways to be mildly deviant without breaking any laws. How do we sanction minor deviant acts?
2. Have you ever known someone to reject the “deviant” positive one? What was the deviant identity? What term describes this sort of deviance?
Do you know anyone who has embraced a stigmatized role through deviance avowal? How might these strategies be useful to individuals?
3. The United States has the dubious distinction of leading every other nation in both the largest total number and largest percentage of incarcerated citizens. Why do you think America has more prisoners than any other country?
