THIRD SEMESTER
PAPER: IX - PRMLEGED CLASS DEVIANCE - PPD

Objectives of the course:


This course focuses on the "Criminality of the Privileged Classes". The
definition of "Privileged Classes" in a society like India should not pose
major problem at all; the expression nearly includes weilders of all forms of
state and social (including religious) power. Accordingly, the course focuses
on the relation between privilege power and deviant behaviour. The
traditional approaches which highlight "white-collar offences", "socio-
economic offences" or "crimes of the powerful" deal mainly with the deviance
of the economically resourceful. The dimension of deviance associated with
bureaucracy, the new rich (nouveau riche) religious leaders and
organizations, professionals classes and the higher bourgeoisie are not fully
captured here.
In designing teaching materials for this course, current developments
in deviance, as reflected in newspapers/journals, law reports, and legislative
proceedings should be highlighted.

It should be stressed that the objective of the course include;


(a) Dispelling of the commonly held belief that deviance crime is
usually associated with the impoverished or improvident;
(b) Construction of model, so understanding the reality of middle
and upper middle class deviance criminality in India;

(c) Critical analyses of legal system responses; and


(d) Issues and dilemmas in penal and sentencing policies.

The following syllabus prepared with the above objectives will be


spread over a period of one semester:

Syllabus
1. Introduction

t.1 Conceptions of White Collar Crimes.


t.2 Indian Approaches to Socio-Economic Offences.
1.3 Notions of Privileged Class Deviance as providing a wider
categorlb,ation o f un de rs tandin g I ndian develo pment.
I.4 $pical forms of such Deviance.
I.4.1 Official Deviance (Deviance by Legislators, Judges,
Bureaucrats.)
1.4.2 Professional Deviance: Journalists, Teachers, Doctors,
Lawyers, Engineers, Architects and Publishers'
I.4.3 Trade Union Deviance (including Teachers, Lawyers
Urban ProPertY Owners)
1.4.4 Landlord Deviance (Class, Caste based Deviance)'
1.4.5 Police Deviance.
1.4.6 Deviance on Electoral Process (Rigging, Booth Capturing,
Impersonation Practices).

THIRD SEMESTER

PAPER X: DRUG ADDICTION, CRIMINAL JUSTICE AND HUMAN RIGHTS -PPE

Objectives of the course:

Almost all the major dilemmas of criminal policy surface rather acutely in
combating drug abuse and criminality is quite complex. At least three important
questions have been recently identified as crucial for comparative research. First, to
what extent drug dependence contributes to criminal behaviour? Second, in what
ways do criminal behaviour patterns determine drug abuse? Third, are there any
cofiIlnon factors which contribute to the determination on both drug abuse and
criminal behaviour?
Apart from these causal issues, there is the broad questions of the social costs -
benefits of criminalization of addictive behaviour.Should drug-taking remain in the
category of "Crime without victims?" Or should it be viewed as posing an ever-growing
threat to human resource development and be subjected to state control, over
individual choices as to survival and life styles?
The Problems here are not merely ideological or theoretical. User of drug for
personal , non-therapeutic purposes may well be linked with international trafficking
in psychotropic substances. It has even been suggested that encouragement of drug-
dependency may have in addition to motivation of high profits, politically subversive
aspects.

Assuming that both addiction and traJ{icking have to be regulated, what penal
policies should be appropriate?What human rights costs in the administration of
criminal justice should be considered acceptable? The international response to these
questions is indicated by the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs,1961, adopted in
New York, 30 March 1961 and as amended by 7972 Protocol in Geneva, 25 March,
7972 and the Convention on Psychotropic substances, adopted in Vienna, 2I
February 1971.India has recently adopted the basic principles of ttrese conventions in
the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act,1986.

Broadly, Penal policy dilemmas here relate to : (a) Management of sanctions


relating to production, distribution and illicit commerce in Narcotic Substances; and ,
(b) Ways of prevention of abuse of drugs, including speedy diagnosis, treatment,
correction, aftercare, rehabilitation arrd reaJization of persons affected.

Important problems and method in studying, the impact of regulation need


evaluated at every stage.

The following syllabus prepared with the above perspective wiil be spread over a
period of one semester.
