Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Marxist theory views deviance as a result of the unequal distribution of resources and power brought about by the capitalist system. According to Marxist theory, individuals who are marginalized or oppressed by the system are more likely to engage in deviant behavior as a means of survival or resistance. This perspective therefore places the blame for deviance on the structural inequalities of society rather than on the individual themselves.
