SOCIOLOGY 216 Info Outline Readings Assessment ... Sociology SOCIOLOGY 216 Sociology and Crime: An Introduction email Lecturer Lecture 4 - The Anomie Perspective Durkheim contributed to the sociological study of deviance with the concept of anomie, the state in which people are unsure of norms. Robert K. Merton and Anomie Theory: In many parts of the world , worldly success and especially material wealth has become a cultural goal and certain cultural means (eg. education, jobs) are approved for achieving success. Those who internalise the goal and pursue it through the approved means Merton calls conformists. Those who internalise the goal, but pursue it through other than the approved means (perhaps because the approved means are not available to them) he calls innovators. Those who have lost sight of the goals but who abide by them compulsively by the approved means he calls ritualists. Those who reject both the approved means and ends he calls retreatists. Those who reject both the approved means and ends and substitute new norms for them he calls rebels. Applying Anomie Theory Anomie theory has been applied to the study of juvenile delinquency. Cohen and E lliot suggest that lower-class boys are attracted to gangs because they are unable to succeed at the middle-class standards by which they are judged.

Abstract —The author of this paper demonstrates that the sociological concept of anomie has undergone important transformations when applied in psychiatric research. It is argued that these transformations are not fully in concordance with the original theories of anomie as they were set forth by Durkheim and Merton. Two approaches in social and cross-cultural psychiatry are examined in this context. First, the concept of anomia as introduced and applied in the research of Leo Srole is discussed. Second, attention is paid to the concept of anomic depression as it was introduced by Wolfgang Jilek in his research among the Coast Salish Indians. Key words — anomie, anomia, anomic depression, sociological theory

Margaret Evans One could easily make the statement that Robert K. Merton was destined to become a sociologist. Almost from the beginning of his academic career Merton was interested in sociology and society’s effect on individuals. However, it could be argued that Merton’s most influential work was his theory of anomie. Anomie is a well-known theory within the discipline of criminology. Merton first published the theory in 1938 in an article titled “Social Structure and Anomie” (Hunt, 1961:59). It was this work that catapulted Merton into the sociological spotlight in which he has forever remained. This paper serves as a glimpse into the life of one of the most influential theorists in the 20 th century. It begins with a historical perspective highlighting Merton’s early days and education, it is then followed by a summary of his original theory, its subsequent revisions, expansions, criticisms and popularity at the turn of the century. Pfohl (1984:262) suggests that Merton’s childhood played an important role in shaping the direction of his future studies. Robert Merton was born in 1910 in Philadelphia to immigrant parents (Hunt, 1961:54). He lived in a slum throughout his childhood, however described it with fondness.

[PAGE UNDER CONSTRUCTION] This is Chapter 5 of the web-publication, European Proponents of Sociology Prior To World War I. Swedish version available in Sociologins följeslagare, (Ratio, Stockholm 1993). Hans L Zetterberg Social differentiation and anomie: Émile Durkheim What characterizes our society more than anything else? Industrialization, said Saint-Simon. The class struggle, said Marx. Rationalization, said Weber. Organizations, said Michels. Residues in the elite, said Pareto. The answer given by France's great sociologist, Émile Durkheim, was differentiation. He gave this answer for this first time in a book published in 1893, De la division du travail social The Division of Labor in Society ), but it recurs in various forms throughout his life's work. Two predecessors: Maine and Tönnies Durkheim was not the first person to point out the link between differentiation and modernization. But he carried out an investigation of the connection that shows far greater originality and depth of thought than the work of his predecessors. The English lawyer Henry Summer Maine (1822-88) took up the subject when, in his book

Make sure that you are able to turn your question into a statement about what causes some observable event. Review the literature. Place your question in the context of relevant sociological expectations (theory and research) about that event. Formulate hypotheses: Come up with a hypothesis from which variables of interest ca be defined Operationalize: Identify variables that are relevant to your hypotheses. Analyze your data: Examine patterns in your data. Test hypotheses. Draw Conclusions. Invite discussion, scrutiny and debate: Make your research and analysis available to others Analysis 1. Anomie and religion Specify research goals: My question is: what causes people to experience detachment from society? I need to make sure that I am able to turn my question into a statement about what causes some observable event. I can't do that until I find out ways this attitude or psychic state has been described. Review the literature. Place your question in the context of relevant sociological expectations (theory and research) about that event. Durkheim claimed that detachment was "anomie" and that it was caused by the absence of various institutional forces that acted to reinforce "norms."

Sociology 1120 Instructor: Mac Nelson Office: B010i This course will act as introduction to the study of sociology. The main focus of its investigation will be directed at establishing how sociologists explain human behaviour, the kinds of terms sociologists use, and the peculiarity of the sociological perspective relative to other human sciences. Students will be encouraged to critically examine their own everyday behaviour in order to discover the basic interaction patterns of our culture. To assist in this process, Schaefer's Introduction to Sociology , will be used to introduce central sociological concepts, as well as extracts from William Kephart's book, Extra-Ordinary Groups , which will help to highlight the relativity of our culture and the ambiguity of such terms as "normal" and "abnormal" human conduct. Towards the end of the semester we shall survey the development of sociology and discuss some of the contemporary issues in sociology today. Course material will be organized around a series of weekly topics that will include the following: The Sociological Perspective Sociology and other social sciences The historical development of sociology Sociological Concepts Notions of human natureinstincts versus socialization Theories of socialization: Cooley, Mead and the symbolic interactionists
