Abstract
The popularity of social media platforms in the digital age has revolutionized how people engage with one another, share information, and interact with their environment. With the framework of social learning theory and routine activity theory, this article aims to summarize and analyze the impact of social media on deviance and crime. As a result, it is now clear how social media has an impact on a variety of societal issues, such as crime and deviance. Using information from a wide range of academic sources, this paper explores the complex connection between social media and crime or deviance. Through the lenses of routine activity theory, social learning theories, and cyber lifestyle-routine activities theory, this study examines the intricate interplay between online behaviors and offline behaviors in an effort to better understand the complex effects of social media on deviance and crime. Meanwhile, people can harness the benefits of social media while reducing its negative effects on crime and deviance by developing rules that address these issues and encouraging a culture of responsible online activity.
