Some examples of Anti-social behavior:
             Destructive overt acts include physical or verbal aggression, bullying, fighting, threatening, being spiteful, cruel, and rejecting or ostracizing another person. Examples of nondestructive overt acts include arguing, stubbornness, and having a bad temper with others.

            1;  Unexpected Actions cause negative effect to others



             Nuisance, rowdy or inconsiderate neighbours. Vandalism, graffiti and fly-posting. Street drinking are the un expected actions which cause harmful effect for the society.
             In sociology, deviance describes an action or behavior that violates social norms, including a formally enacted rule (e.g., crime) as well as informal violations of social norms (e.g., rejecting folkways and mores). Although deviance may have a negative connotation, the violation of social norms is not always a negative action; positive deviation exists in some situations. Although a norm is violated, a behavior can still be classified as positive or acceptable.Social norms differ from culture to culture. For example, a deviant act can be committed in one society but may be normal for another society.In sociology, conflict theory states that society or an organization functions so that each individual participant and its groups struggle to maximize their benefits, which inevitably contributes to social change such as political changes and revolutions. Deviant behaviors are actions that do not go along with the social institutions as what cause deviance. The institution's ability to change norms, wealth or status comes into conflict with the individual. The legal rights of poor folks might be ignored, middle class are also accept; they side with the elites rather than the poor, thinking they might rise to the top by supporting the status quo. Conflict theory is based upon the view that the fundamental causes of crime are the social and economic forces operating within society. However, it explains white-collar crime less well.
Durkheim's concept
Durkheim (1858–1917) claimed that deviance was in fact a normal and necessary part of social organization.When he studied deviance he stated four important functions of deviance.
Michel Foucault
Michel Foucault believed that torture had been phased out from modern society due to the dispersion of power; there was no need any more for the wrath of the state on a deviant individual. Rather, the modern state receives praise for its fairness and dispersion of power which, instead of controlling each individual, controls the mass.
