Sociology, Sociological Theories, Sociological Perspective
Sociology is the study of human society and social interaction. It examines how social structures and processes influence behavior. The sociological perspective views behavior in its social context by seeing patterns in individual actions and the influence of society. Sociological theories like structural functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism offer different frameworks for understanding social phenomena.
Week 5: Deviance
This document discusses social control and deviance. It defines social control as a society's formal and informal attempts to regulate members' behavior and thoughts. Informal social control includes casual enforcement of norms, while formal control refers to laws and policies carried out by authorities. Deviance is defined as violating cultural norms in a way that draws negative attention. Theories of deviance discussed include structural functionalism, conflict theory, symbolic interactionism, and postmodernism. Structural functionalism views deviance as necessary and bringing about social change, while conflict theory sees it as a means for those in power to control the powerless. Symbolic interactionism examines how socialization and labeling shape deviance. Postmodernism similarly argues that institutions use knowledge and
Functionalism on Crime and Deviance
Functionalism views crime as inevitable and having some positive functions for society. Durkheim believed crime reinforces social solidarity and norms, as it provokes condemnation that reaffirms shared values. Crime can also drive social change by challenging norms. However, functionalist theories have been criticized for ignoring individual experiences and how crime primarily benefits certain groups. Subsequent theorists like Merton, Cohen, and Cloward and Ohlin incorporated structural factors and examined how blocked opportunities and cultural goals can lead some groups to form deviant subcultures as alternative means to achieve success and status.

Sociological Perspectives examples chapter 1
The document discusses four sociological paradigms and how they can be used to understand various social issues. It provides examples of how racism, sexism, and inequality can be analyzed through the conflict paradigm lens. The war in Iraq is discussed according to the conflict, functionalist, and symbolic interactionist paradigms. The conflict paradigm views the war as an extension of US power while functionalism sees it as increasing security by preventing terrorism. Symbolic interactionism argues the war sends a message to terrorists and supports viewing non-Christian groups as threats. Small group interactions and interpreting cultural symbols are key to this paradigm.

Week 9: Government and the Economy
Three types of legitimate authority were discussed: charismatic, traditional, and rational-legal. Power can be exercised through force, authority, or persuasion. Political systems like democracy, monarchy, and totalitarianism were defined.

Most modern economies are mixed systems that blend elements of both.

Both theories see the economic base as determining social and political structures.

Education designed to_deceive-mary_williams-1978-14pgs-edu
This document summarizes an article that is critical of modern education programs. It argues that programs like sex education, drug education, and values education were designed by humanists to change society by manipulating human behavior. These programs use techniques from psychology like values clarification, role playing, and sensitivity training to alter students' thinking and behaviors rather than just impart knowledge. The goal is to have students reject traditional values and morals in favor of situation ethics with no absolute truths. The document warns that these programs are deceiving parents by appearing to provide knowledge but are really aimed at re-engineering culture according to humanist ideals.

[Group 4] sub counter
This document discusses subcultures and countercultures and their relationship to mainstream culture. It defines mainstream culture as forms of culture that are widely accessible and intended for mass consumption, while subcultures and countercultures consciously challenge the values, ideas, and structures of mainstream culture through their actions and practices. Subcultures tend to be youth-oriented groups that exist outside of the mainstream, while countercultures have the explicit goal of changing the world through their cultural objects and political views. The document also examines how popular representations influence perceptions of subcultures and how subcultures articulate complex politics through demanding attention, connecting to other modes of politics, and engaging with social spaces.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
