  Paper 1 Requirements:

A definition of deviant behavior often depends upon historical circumstances. What was considered deviant a   generation or two ago may not be considered deviant at all today. This assignment is an examination of our historical definitions of deviant behavior.

Thoroughly discuss one example of behavior that was considered deviant more than 10 years ago, but today is considered conventional or normal. Why is this behavior now considered normal? Using the sociological concepts and theories from the course readings, and your own research, explain what changes in society have led to the acceptance of this once deviant behavior.

Next, thoroughly discuss one example of a   behavior that was considered acceptable more than 10 years ago, but today is considered deviant. Why is this behavior now considered deviant? Using the sociological concepts and theories from the course readings, and your own research, explain what changes in society have led to the rejection of this once acceptable behavior.

Conclude your paper with a prediction:   what is one well-known deviant behavior exhibited today that may be considered acceptable in the future? Explain in detail why you think this behavior will be considered acceptable in the future. What is one well-known acceptable behavior exhibited today that may be considered deviant in the future? Explain in detail why you think this behavior will be considered deviant in the future.
