Synopsis

Crime and Deviance brings together the important essays and previously unpublished writings of Edwin M. Lemert. It is virtually impossible to discuss crime and lesser forms of social deviance without using language Lemert introduced into scientific and popular vocabularies. Crime and Deviance presents for the first time an important body of Professor Lemert's unpublished work. It thus allows rare insight into his constantly changing thought, which is as fresh today as ever.

Review

This book is a testimony to one of the most original thinkers in 20th century criminology. It is must reading for students and scholars alike. From the introduction by Charles Lemert, Ed Lemert's nephew, to the conclusion by Michael Winter, the book is loaded with insights and a unique perspective on crime and deviance.--William Chambliss, George Washington University

Ed Lemert was an important figure in sociological theory and in the study of crime. This book provides an excellant overview of his work.--Thomas J. Scheff, University of California, Santa Barbara

Edwin M. Lemert was the founder of the societal reaction theory of deviant behavior and, as such, was the most important person in the development of what we know as labeling theory. This book contains some of Edwin Lemert's best known publications, works published in obscure places, and seven previously unpublished papers.--Contemporary Sociology

From the Publisher

For the first time, Crime and Deviance brings together the important essays and previously unpublished writings of Edwin M. Lemert. More than any other author, Lemert first established the foundations of the modern sociology of crime and social deviance. Beginning with his first and now classic work, Social Pathology, in 1951 through his last work The Trouble With Evil published in 1997 the year of his death, Lemert wrote with keen empirical insight on crime and criminal personality, juvenile justice, alcoholism, check forgers, court and legal process, among many other topics. Lemert's famous societal reaction theory
thus became a necessary ingredient of any realistic understanding of those who violate the perceived norms of social order. It is virtually impossible to discuss crime and lesser forms of social deviance without using language Lemert introduced into scientific and popular vocabularies. Crime and Deviance presents for the first time an important body of Professor Lemert's unpublished work. It thus allows rare insight into his constantly changing thought which is as fresh today as ever.
