Abstract
Classic subcultural theories provided historical and criminological assumptions about groups of individuals who adhere to an oppositional set of values and beliefs compared with mainstream culture. Since the reemergence of contemporary subcultural theories, the utility of these theoretical explanations to study illegal behavior holds promise in the present day. Various theoretical refinements of contemporary subcultural theories have been based on the limitations of classic subcultural perspectives. Modern subcultural perspectives have been able to link both macro‐ and micro‐level characteristics as potential and important explanations to the study of deviance, violence, and overall crime.
