Toward a Sociology of Acceptance: The Other Side of the Study of Deviance.
Bogdan, Robert; Taylor, Steven
Social Policy, v18 n2 p34-39 Fall 1987
This article discusses the history of the sociology of deviance and the exclusion from society of individuals who do not meet norms, and argues for a sociology emphasizing acceptance of differences on individual, group, and societal levels. Types of relationships based on mutual acceptance are discussed along with generalizations regarding the development and benefits to all parties of these relationships. Contains 17 references. (PB)
