Intrinsic to Hirschi's (1969, 1977) theory of social control is the assumption that persons will engage in delinquent behavior when their social bond to society is weakened. Hirschi's concept of social bond is comprised of the following four elements: (1) attachment, (2) commitment, (3) involvement, and (4) beliefs.
All the various forms of social norms are instruments of social control in varying degrees. The social usages, folkways regulating our behaviour, are called mores. The folkways and mores have the same source of their emergence and it is group interaction.
