The Routledge Handbook on Deviance brings together original
contributions on deviance, with a focus on new, emerging, and
hidden forms of deviant behavior. The editors have curated a
comprehensive collection highlighting the relativity of deviance,
with chapters exploring the deviant behaviors related to sport,
recreation, body modification, chronic health conditions, substance
use, religion and cults, political extremism, sexuality, online
interaction, mental and emotional disorders, elite societal status,
workplace issues, and lifestyle. The selections review competing
definitions and orientations and a wide range of theoretical
premises while addressing methodological issues involved in the
study of deviance. Each section begins with an introduction by the
editors, anchoring the topics in relevant theoretical and
methodological contexts and identifying common themes as well as
divergence. Providing state-of-the-art scholarship on deviance in
modern society, this handbook is an invaluable resource for
researchers and students engaged in the study of deviance across a
range of disciplines including criminology, criminal justice,
sociology, anthropology, and interdisciplinary departments,
including justice studies, social transformation, and socio-legal
studies.
