13[blank_start]Labeling[blank_end] theorists argue that crime and deviance are [blank_start]socially[blank_end] constructed (no one is inherently criminal or deviant). Lemert identifies 2 types of deviance; Primary and secondary deviance. [blank_start]Primary[blank_end] deviance is the type of deviance in which an individual is labeled and marginalized due to their deviant acts. Whereas [blank_start]secondary[blank_end] deviance is as a result of in individual being labelled as deviant, the individual then accepts and internalizing this label, causing them to become deviant. Becker also argues that deviant identities are produced through the [blank_start]labeling[blank_end] process rather than their own deviant motivations, this is called self fulfilling prophecy.
