The author examines parental responsibility for their children’s development. The authors then summarize the functionalist perspective of deviance, the function of crimes, and how these perspectives have influenced the development of Emile Durkheim’s work like anomie. The authors then turn their attention to fear of crime in regard to social order. The authors then examine how the Tennessean newspaper The City Paper and its readers’ comments frame the coverage of the Kurdish Pride Gang. The authors then provide an insight into pluralism and politicized religion. I then assess and compare the theories of differential association, low self-control, and Black’s theory of social control for explaining deviance. The authors then focus on fear and risk perceptions of terrorism. I then enlighten the account of communication media technology and how it influences culture, control, as well as deviance. The authors then address how the development of technology has affected the nature of deviance and social control and what is the impact of media use among the young children. Finally, the authors examine how the sociological imagination of the individuals living in southeastern Turkey is constructed through the movie, The Bliss.
Sebahattin Ziyanak is associate professor in sociology at The University of Texas Permian Basin.
