    Functionalism and crime: In this essay I will be talking about the functionalist perspective on crime and deviance and be comparing it with the Marxist view. The main functionalist theories I will be examining are Merton’s strain theory‚ Cohen’s status frustration and Cloward and Ohlin’s three subcultures.
