"Too much crime threatens to tear society apart, too little means society represses individuals' individuality and expression - it controls it's members."
"Deviance is integral to society - not all is bad"
Social Solidarity: people socialised into shared value consensus. Social control rewards conformity and punishes deviance.
Inevitability of crime: due to unequal/ineffective socialisation
Anomie: modern society has weaker norms and values, therefore a reduced collective consciousness, leading to normlessness.
