Sociology opinion
Sociological opinion on the phenomenon of drug abuse:
And the men of sociology define - the factors that encourage deviation in eight points: -
(1) Incorrect or incomplete social training appears in the complexes in which educational values diminish and the family disintegrates significantly.
(2) Weak measures, whether in terms of compliance or deviation, lead to the creation of an oppressive situation for individuals, so some of them think that their behavior in society as an individual does not mean anyone, and for this, positive sanctions must be ensured in every case of regime care.
(3) Weak oversight: If it happens that the procedures are severe, but those in charge of implementing them do not implement them accurately due to the lack of manpower in the field of social control.
(4) Ease of cooling to reduce the severity of violating the standard or touching the excuses.
(5) The lack of clarity of standards that leads to confusion of ideas and attitudes, especially when the standard differs between individuals.
(6) Violations of standards may occur in secret, while the aggressors remain free from social punishment and the law. Violations against standards may be denied if they include people who do not cooperate with social control agencies in detecting the aggressors and the type of their attacks.
(7) The aspects of social control diminish, so legal rules are frozen and do not keep pace with social and cultural change at a time when society develops in a way that disrupts the effectiveness of these rules and renders them sterile from the point of view of the population.
(8) Some deviant groups in society are so powerful that they create a special culture for themselves, adorn the deviation and make it legal, and create in the same individuals belonging to it multiple strong feelings of loyalty.
