[A] stunning accomplishment. Bold, innovative; [Dotter] defines a new trajectory for interactionist theory and research . . . well-crafted, clearly written, quite accessible for teaching and instruction purposes. -- Norman Denzin, University of Illinios at Urbana-Champaign The book is well organized, and moves through the traditional litany of pragmatism, symbolic interactionism and deviance quite smoothly. . . . This makes it a well-informed text with unusual theoretical strengths. -- Peter K. Manning, Brooks Professor of Criminal Justice, Northeastern University Dotter's book is a novel approach to this subject. There are now numerous books on postmodernism, symbolic interactionism, and deviance (most likely in the thousands), but I am not aware of any book that specifically describes the construction of deviance by tracing the symbolic interactionist roots of postmodern treatments. Since the treatment of the postmodern scenario belongs to Dotter, and this is the central analytical concept of the text, this book offers a contribution to our way of thinking about deviance. -- Paul Leslie, Greensboro College
Creating Deviance is a basic text introducing deviance from an interactionist perspective, placing the study of deviant behavior within the broader terrain of cultural meaning. By examining the persistence of gender inequality, the formation of youth subcultures, and other issues Dotter provides a valuable resource for the study of deviance and crime and for introductory courses in sociology on deviance and social control.
