Revisiting societal reaction (labeling) by way of quantum holographic theory
Keywords:
Labeling; societal reaction; deviance as an emergent event; quantum holography; Schema QD; phase conjugation; critical criminology; transformative justiceAbstract
The labeling perspective, or sometimes referred to as the societal reaction perspective, very central in the 1960s and early 1970s, is revisited by providing a quantum holographic application. Although labeling theory was subject to much critique and eventually lost much of its appeal, discussions in theories of crime still make reference to the process-orientated nature of the approach and its importance. This article1 revisits the core themes of societal reaction and suggests that situating the core themes within a quantum holographic approach revitalizes its importance as a component of more holistic-oriented theories of crime.
