Social control refers to social processes, planned or unplanned, by which people are taught, persuaded, or forced to conform to norms. In every society, some punishments or negative sanctions are established for deviant behavior. Without deviant behavior there would not be need for social control and without social control there would not be a way of recognizing the boundary between the acceptable and the unacceptable.
Social control may be either formal or informal. Informal mechanisms include expressions of disapproval by significant others and withholding of positive rewards for disapproved behavior. Most people internalize norms in the course of socialization. This is any group’s most powerful protection against deviance, in that the individual’s own conscience operates as an agent of social control. When informal sanctions fail, formal agents of social control may be called upon. In contemporary society, such formal agents and agencies include psychiatry and other mental health professions; mental hospitals; police and courts of law; prisons; and social welfare agencies. All these formal agents function to limit, correct, and control violation of norms. Conflict theorists would also point out that social control agents and systems tend, in any society, to serve the interests of powerful groups and to enforce the norms most beneficial to those who make the rules and who, therefore, define unacceptable behavior.
Social control, whether formal or informal, has a dual function. First, it punishes the wrongdoer and reaffirms the boundaries of acceptable behavior. Second, and less recognized, it regulates the manner in which deviants are treated. [br] According to conflict theorists, social control agents and systems are________.
选项
A、liberal
B、partial
C、neutral
D、overall
答案
B
解析
题目问冲突派理论家对社会控制代理和系统的看法。根据题干conflict theorists定位至第2段最后一句。该句提到,冲突派理论家认为,社会控制代理倾向为强势群体的利益服务,因此可推断冲突派理论家认为,社会控制代理和系统偏爱于强势群体,因此B项partial“偏爱的”正确。A项“自由的”、C项“中立的”和D项“整体的”均不符合语境,可排除。
