Socialisation: Definition
Socialisation is the process by which individualsacquire the knowledge, language, social skills, andvalues to conform to the norms and roles required forintegration into a group or community. It is acombination of both self-imposed (because theindividual wants to conform) and externally-imposedrules, and the expectations of others. In a health andsocial care setting, socialisation refers to the processthrough which a new employee 'learns the ropes,' bybecoming sensitive to the formal and informal powerstructures and the explicit and implicit rules ofbehaviour.

Social Disorganisation (Shaw & MacKay: 1988)
Social Disorganisation is when the informal social controls of a community break down which cause criminal cultures emerge. As a result of disorganisation, communities lack
collective efficacy to fight crime and disorder.
