GCSE Sociology Revision - Crime and Social Control (Episode 18)

Hello everybody! Welcome to my first video on the topic of Crime & Deviance! This video acts as an introduction to some of the key concepts that you’ll need to know when it comes to sociological views on crime, with a focus on social control and the social construction of crime.
In this video, I cover the following things:
- The basics - key terms such as norms, values, laws, crime and deviance that you’ll need to know before we get started in earnest - 01:01 - 02:30
- Social control and sanctions - What social control is, agents of formal social control, agents of informal social control, formal and informal sanctions - 02:31 - 06:33
- Examples of agents of social control and how they control society - 06:34 - 10:45
- Social construction of crime and deviance - what social constructs are, how crime can be socially constructed, examples of historical crime, situational crime and cross-cultural crime - 10:46 - 16:05
- 10 key terms to know - Crime, Deviance, Social Control, Formal Agents, Informal Agents, Sanctions, Social Construct, Historical Crime, Situational Crime, Cross-Cultural Crime - 16:06 - 18:58
- A word on exams, with an 8 mark question and answer walkthrough - ‘Explain the different types of social control in society.’ 18:59 - 22:17
- Recap and Outro - 22:18 - 24:23
The video is aimed at GCSE Sociology Eduqas students but will also be useful as a recap to those studying different exam boards, e.g. AQA Sociology and/or those studying at a higher level, particularly if you’re newer to the subject.
