Explanations and solutions for deviant behaviour among secondary school pupils

Absztrakt (kivonat)

In my thesis I am going to analyse the connection between deviancy in teenage pupils and many social factors, like social class, race, gender to find the roots and probable solutions and to reduce the frequency of this phenomena. The main statements are revolving around the topic of conformity and non-conformity. The consequences of being an outsider of the society is social exclusion, alienation, or in many cases self-alienation. This paper is going to demonstrate the deteriorating situation of Hungary on the field of teenage deviancy, substance consumption and crime rates. I am investigating the topic from different aspects as well, from the view of the current and contemporary victims of social exclusion, those who strengthen the social stratification, from the angle of teachers facing the problem every day. My findings are going to be introduced step-by-step and at the end of my thesis I draw my conclusion for the topic and the probable solutions for the problem.
