5	INTRODUCTION Many social problems involve the concept of deviance in relation to a society’s system of social control. These problems overlap significantly because the social and cultural factors that contribute to deviant or antisocial behaviors are complex and deeply interrelated. Juvenile delinquency and street crime, for example, may be linked to youth gang and organized crime activities; the availability of guns, alcohol, and drugs; poverty, unemployment, and lack of economic opportunity; racism; family instability and domestic violence; school failure; and the influence of mass media. Issues within the criminal justice system itself add to the social problems of crime, violence, and drugs.

Moreover, population is a big problem, because people believe in the misconceptions of beliefs and traditions, so they keep on multiplying without an awareness that they becoming overpopulated country. To solve this problem people must be warned about its disadvantages to the society, teach them the ways for family planning and help them to understand how hard it is for the part of everyone to develop a country which is over populated.

Others says that small social problems also take place, it is because of misunderstanding.

In solving social problems, we need the support of the government and cooperation of the people. For us, the other ways of solving these problems are: First thing you do is to find the cause of the problem, then make meaningful plans and perform actions to solve the problem; then, choose the best solution and finally, ask support from the others. Therefore, different countries are facing different problems and each of them has their own solution according to the problems they are facing. They greatly believed that social problems can be solved. So, let us join our forces for the success of oneself and most of all, for the victory of our world.
