  • Objectives

    Objectives

    This CU aims to enable students on some concepts (normative and deviant behavior, associative and antisocial behavior ...) and to provide information on the conditions that determine the emergence of deviation and the construction of the deviant subject. To this end, the coordinates of the main theories and respective reading grids are outlined, alerting them to their transdisciplinary nature and the need for integration in the political-economic, cultural and socio-cultural context that served as a setting for the production of all of them.
    The intention of the CU consists of empowering students to identify and diagnose deviant behavior, making them able to develop an intervention.
