0 4 Read box Item B below and answer the question that follows.

Item B

Functionalists argue that crime and deviance are inevitable as not everyone can be

fully integ into the norms and values of society. They believe that crime exists in

all societies and has many benefits, such as showing people the difference between

right and wrong.

However, other sociologists, such as conflict theorists, are more critical of the view

that crime and deviance are beneficial for all individuals and for society as a whole.

For example, the construction of crime could be seen to serve the interests of

powerful groups.

Applying material from Item B and your knowledge, evaluate the view that crime and

deviance are inevitable and beneficial for individuals and for society as a whole.
