The term was introduced by the French sociologist in his study of suicide . He believed that one type of suicide (anomic) resulted from the breakdown of the social standards necessary for regulating behaviour. When a social system is in a state of anomie, common values and common meanings are no longer understood or accepted, and new values and meanings have not developed. According to Durkheim, such a society produces, in many of its members, psychological states characterized by a sense of futility, lack of purpose, and emotional emptiness and despair. Striving is considered useless, because there is no accepted definition of what is desirable.

   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anomie
   
   Extractions: Categories and lists Journals Publications Outline ... e Anomie is a sociological term meaning "personal feeling of a lack of social norms normlessness ". It describes the breakdown of social norms and values It was popularized by French sociologist Émile Durkheim in his influential book Suicide (1897). Durkheim borrowed the word from French philosopher Jean-Marie Guyau For Durkheim, anomie arises more generally from a mismatch between personal or group standards and wider social standards, or from the lack of a social ethic, which produces moral deregulation and an absence of legitimate aspirations. This is a nurtured condition: Anomie in common parlance is thought to mean something like "at loose ends". The Oxford English Dictionary lists a range of definitions, beginning with a disregard of divine law, through the 19th and 20th century sociological terms meaning an absence of accepted social standards or values. Most sociologists associate the term with Durkheim, who used the concept to speak of the ways in which an individual's actions are matched, or integrated, with a system of social norms and practices ... Durkheim also formally posited anomie as a mismatch, not simply as the absence of norms. Thus, a society with too much rigidity and little individual discretion could also produce a kind of anomie, a mismatch between individual circumstances and larger social mores. Thus, fatalistic suicide arises when a person is too rule-governed, when there is ... no free horizon of expectation.

7. Anomie (by Mathieu Deflem)
   Encyclopedia entry on anomie Anomie. Mathieu Deflem deflem@sc.edu www.mathieudeflem.net. This is an online copy of a print publication in The Blackwell Encyclopedia of Sociology  
   http://www.cas.sc.edu/socy/faculty/deflem/zanomiency.html
   
   Extractions: Also available in print-friendly pdf format. Cite as: Deflem, Mathieu. 2007. �Anomie.� Pp. 144-146 in The Blackwell Encyclopedia of Sociology , edited by George Ritzer. Oxford: Blackwell Publishing. In his famous study on suicide, Durkheim (1897) extended the anomie perspective when, next to altruistic and egoistic suicide, he identified the anomic type of suicide. Durkheim argued that anomic suicide takes place when normative regulations are absent, such as in the world of trade and industry (chronic anomie), or when abrupt transitions in society lead to a loss in the effectiveness of norms to regulate behavior (acute anomie). The latter type explains the high suicide rate during fiscal crises and among divorced men. Durkheim's anomie concept was not widely influential in sociology until it was adopted and expanded in Robert K. Merton's (1938, 1968) theory of deviant behavior and opportunity structures. Differentiating between society's culturally accepted goals and its institutionalized means to reach those goals, Merton argues that a state of anomie occurs as a result of the unusually strong emphasis in US society on the cultural goals (individual success) without a corresponding emphasis on the legitimate norms (education, work). Anomie refers to the resulting demoralization or deinstitutionalization of a society's legitimate means, leading people in some social categories, depending on their socioeconomic conditions, to be more likely to adopt illegitimate and often illegal means to reach culturally approved goals.

Most institutions demand unqualified faith; but the institution of science makes skepticism a virtue. -Robert King Merton, sociologist (1910-2003) This statement got me thinking the other day when I came across it. This may once have been the case, however, I believe hubris has set in with regard to science in the 21st century. There have been countless popular prophets warning us about the dangers of an enlightened society which has simply swapped God for Science. The danger, of course is that unwavering belief in a god isn't going to do much harm generally. Whereas science has steadily increased the degree to which it can be as Old Testament as any jealous deity. In fact, I believe the entire genre of science fiction was invented just to give a home to the warnings about science.

The restaurant was full of them. Even the young people look old. Heck, even the the teenagers looked elderly! Like they were just waiting to grey. When I think of old people food, what comes to mind is the kind of food they serve at cafeteria-style restaurants: baked cod (sprinkled with paprika, of course!), salisbury steak, meatloaf, macaroni and cheese, green beans, mashed potatoes, applesauce, grapefruit, etc. But it's not just these dishes. It's something about the way they're prepared. I got steamed veggies as a side- something I'd find anywhere- but the way these steamed veggies tasted gave them the flavor of old people steamed veggies.

Following on the work of Émile Durkheim , Strain Theories have been advanced by Robert King Merton Albert K. Cohen Richard Cloward and Lloyd Ohlin Robert Agnew (1992), and Steven Messner and Richard Rosenfeld (1994). Strain may be either: Structural : this refers to the processes at the societal level which filter down and affect how the individual perceives his or her needs, i.e. if particular social structures are inherently inadequate or there is inadequate regulation, this may change the individual's perceptions as to means and opportunities; or Individual: this refers to the frictions and pains experienced by an individual as he or she looks for ways to satisfy his or her needs, i.e. if the goals of a society become significant to an individual, actually achieving them may become more important than the means adopted.
