Description: Becoming Deviant, Paperback by Matza, David; Blomberg, Thomas G. (INT), ISBN 1412814464, ISBN-13 9781412814461, Brand New, Free P&P in the UK First published in 1969, this work by Matza (emeritus, sociology, U. of California at Berkeley) is a "criminological classic" of enduring significance in the view of Blomburg (criminology, Florida State U.), who provides the introduction in this second edition. In the work, Matza first develops his theoretical perspective on deviance, which he dubs naturalism, by tracing and building upon themes from the sociological approaches of the Chicago school, the functionalists, and the neo-Chicagoan approach. He then theorizes the subjective developmental processes of becoming deviant, describing it as a sequential process of affinity for certain prohibited behaviors, affiliation with people and places that support such behaviors, and finally understanding and identification with prohibited behaviors.
