The conflict approach contributes to our understanding of deviant behavior by showing how

A) unconscious drives and motives lead to some forms of deviance such as child molestation.
B) the subjective experiences of deviance can lead to fear and anger.
C) youth gangs are at the root of most deviance.
D) social inequality influences the making and enforcing of norms and laws.

The conflict approach focuses on how social inequality can lead to deviant behavior, such as individuals from lower socio-economic classes being more likely to engage in criminal behavior because they lack access to resources and opportunities available to those in higher classes. It also highlights how the enforcement of norms and laws is often influenced by those in power, leading to unequal treatment and punishment for different groups. This approach helps us understand the structural factors that contribute to deviance rather than just individual motivations or experiences.
