Deviant and criminal acts are gaining importance scientifically and socially. Violence in schools, terrorist actions or child killings are just a few extreme examples. Siegfried Lamnek's proven standard work provides an introduction to the classical theories of deviant behavior. The book covers the most important sociological attempts at explanation. Anomie theory, subculture theory, differential association theory, and labeling approach are traced in the nuances and shades of their historical development in such a way that the reader can gain a comprehensive yet quick overview. This volume is an ideal textbook for all students whose studies include social science components in their major or minor. It is supplemented by the 4th edition (2017) of "Theories of Deviant Behavior II: 'Modern' Approaches" (utb 1774).
