1.2037 Suicide and the Unbearable Reality of Society.
This paper will consider how institutional ideologies of deviance are adapted to meet the functionalist histories of the specific institution. Thus, the medical community pathologizes human behaviors, or, for example, the police respond to deviance as violating social law. The academic community must theoretically negotiate and rationalize its contradictory role of both endorsing the structural oppressions in society, and engaging with the consequential social issues in contexts of problem-solving. This paper will be deviating from the ideological assumption that such a thing as "normal" exists. Instead, this paper will attempt to explain how alcoholism and suicide can be understood as rational responses to an inescapably irrational society. 7 pgs. 16 f/c. 3b.

5.4153 Difference and Deviance: Theories of Crime in Social Systems.
Deviance is socially determined and culturally specific. This paper considers some of the theories of deviance and criminality, emphasizing the complex work of understanding the relations of any people within a larger society. Because criminal law is determined by the ruling class, deviance is subject to perspectives that represent the desired norms of a dominant class. As such, people who differ from these norms are subject to standards that can identify their differences as criminal. Difference is not deviance; however, this distinction remains difficult to include into the current structure of justice and criminal law. 4 pgs. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
