SOCIAL JUSTICE AND SOCIOLOGY: AGENDAS FOR THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY JOE R, FEAGIN University of Florida The world's peoples face daunting challenges in the twenty-first century. While apologists herald the globaliza- tion of capitalism, many people on our planet experience recurring economic exploitation, immiseration, and environmental crises linked to capitalism's spread. Across the globe social movements continue to raise the issues of social justice and democracy. Given the new century's serious challenges, sociologists need to rediscover their roots in a sociology committed to social justice, to cultivate and extend the long- standing "countersystem" approach to research, to encourage greater self-reflection in sociological analysis, and to re-emphasize the importance ofthe teaching of sociology. Finally, more sociologists should examine the big social questions of this century, including the issues of economic exploitation, social oppression, and the looming environmental crises. And, clearly, more sociologists should engage in the study of alternative social futures, including those of more just and egalitarian societies. Sociologists need to think deeply and imaginatively about sustainable social futures and to aid in building better human societies. WE STAND today at the beginning ofa challenging new century. Like ASA Presidents before me, I am conscious of the honor and the responsibility that this address carries with it, and I feel a special obligation to speak about the role of sociology and sociologists in the twenty-first century. As we look forward, let me quote W. E. B. Du Bois, a pathbreaking U.S. sociologist. In his last autobiographical statement, Du Bois (1968) wrote: Direct correspondence to Joe R. Feagin, De- partment of Sociology, Box 117330, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL 32611, (feagin® ufl.edu). I would like to thank the numerous col- leagues who made helpful comments on various drafts of this presidential address. Among these were Hernan Vera, Sidney Willhelm, Bernice McNair Barnett, Gideon Sjoherg, Anne Rawls, Mary Jo Deegan, Michael R. Hill, Patricia Lengermann, Jill Niebrugge-Brantley, Tony Orum, William A. Smith, Ben Agger, Karen Pyke, and Leslie Houts. [TJoday the contradictions of American civi- lization are tremendous. Freedom of political discussion is difficult; elections are not free and fair. . . . The greatest power in the land is not thought or ethics, but wealth. . . . Present profit is valued higher than future need. . . . I know the United States. It is my country and the land of my fathers. It is still a land of magnificent possibilities. It is still the home of noble souls and generous people. But it is selling its birthright. It is betraying its mighty destiny. (Pp. 418-19) Today the social contradictions of Ameri- can and global civilizations are still im- mense.

Social Inclusion (ISSN: 2183–2803) 2018, Volume 6, Issue 1, Pages 29–39 DOI: 10.17645/si.v6i1.1193 Article Equality of What? The Capability Approach and the Right to Education for Persons with Disabilities Andrea Broderick Department of International and European Law, Maastricht University, 6211 LH Maastricht, The Netherlands; E-Mail: [email protected] Submitted: 29 September 2017 | Accepted: 27 December 2017 | Published: 26 March 2018 Abstract The right to education is indispensable in unlocking other substantive human rights and in ensuring full and equal participation of persons with disabilities in mainstream society. The cornerstone of Article 24 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities seeks to ensure access to inclusive education for persons with disabilities on an equal basis with others as well as the full development of human potential. Since the adoption of the Convention, there has been much theorising about inclusive education; however, there has been little focus on the meaning of equality in the context of the right to education for persons with disabilities. The capability approach, developed by Amartya Sen and further refined by Martha Nussbaum, focuses on ensuring equality and developing human potential. It is often viewed as a tool that can be used to overcome the limitations of traditional equality assessments in the educational sphere, which only measure resources and outcomes. This article explores whether the capability approach can offer new insights into the vision of educational equality contained in the Convention and how that vision can be implemented at the national level. Keywords capability approach; CRPD; disability; education; equality; inclusive education; United Nations Issue This article is part of the issue “Disability Equality: In Theory and Practice”, edited by Mark Priestley (University of Leeds, UK) and Lisa Waddington (Maastricht University, The Netherlands). © 2018 by the author; licensee Cogitatio (Lisbon, Portugal).

Introduction The question ‘equality of what?’ is often posed during debates on political philosophy and interdisciplinary debates on distributive justice. It concerns a decision as to the elements which governmental policies and institu- tional structures should aim to equalise. The same question was posed by economist-philosopher Amartya Sen, who first introduced his theory of ‘basic capability equality’ in his Tanner Lectures (Sen, 1979, p. 218): I believe what is at issue is the interpretation of needs in the form of basic capabilities. This interpretation of needs and interests is often implicit in the demand for equality. This type of equality I shall call “basic capability equality”. The capability approach encompasses a ‘partial theory of social justice’ (Nussbaum, 2009, p. 232) and a norma- tive framework for the asse.

Social History of Sports in the U.S. This course is entirely on-line, so all information can be obtained through the Blackboard site, or by e-mailing Bill Offutt directly at [email protected] or [email protected] NOTE: Because this course is extremely condensed into 40 days, I will be posting much of the material ahead of when it is due, for students to work through at their own pace; in other words, you can work ahead as you feel like it. There are certain pieces of material, from Unit Two forward, that will be added to both the Course Documents , where the assigned readings are, and Discussion Board , where focused questions and material will guide your responses. The materials will be added in time for use by the various intermediate deadlines. However, there are particular deadlines for completion of the discussion writing on the various units of material as well as the two papers that make up the grade, and students must pay close attention to these deadlines in order to complete the course. Course Goals: This course will examine the experience of sports and leisure for different groups of Americans (e.g., African-Americans, women, working class), from colonial times to the present but primarily focused on the 20th century. My goal is to introduce students to historical analysis and argument through the examination of the sports and leisure time activities that won increasing popularity among Americans from the late nineteenth to the late twentieth century. This course will incorporate analytical categories from social history (class, race, gender, ethnicity) as well as the frameworks used by cultural, economic, and political history. This course will thus involve students in gaining a better understanding of the relationships that sports and leisure have with the social, economic, cultural and political forces at work in the United States and the world. Students will appreciate the issues that have affected sports participation over the years, including racial and gender discrimination, class economics, and commercialization. Students are expected to learn not only the basic data of American social history of sports but also to express that knowledge in oral and written argument that employs evidence to prove historical theses. Precise assignments for discussion are given at the end of this syllabus. Students will also be expected to use the Blackboard site for discussion. This course is thus NOT about player statistics, won-loss records, and/or fantasy leagues. It is about understanding the role sports has played in American society over time, and that is a serious historical inquiry. By the end of the course, you will be able to: 1) Identify and analyze the changing meaning and significance of sports and leisure to American society and culture. 2) Discuss the major developments in sports as they were influenced by major social, economic, cultural and political forces in American history, and (in turn) how sports pa.

Social Forces, Gangs, and Crime - Part 1 The focus of this assignment is on social process theory: the socialized to crime perspective on criminality. Social learning, social control, and social reaction (labeling) theories view crime as a function of people's interactions with various organizations, institutions, and processes in society. The socialization process is very influential in human development. According to this theory, all people regardless of race, class, or gender have the potential to become delinquents and/or criminals. Complete the following: Select a gang or group within a large urban area or city. Explore the burdens of social class, poverty, racism, poor schools, and dysfunctional families, and the possible impact of these social forces on criminality in such a setting. Explain how these negative social forces might be counteracted by positive peer relations, a supportive family, educational success, and structured religious beliefs using social and criminal justice initiatives. Explore the overall relationship between social class and crime. Most residents of the inner-city refrain from criminal activity, and those who do commit crimes, age out over time. Why? Review the Social Forces, Gangs, and Crime – Part 1 Scoring Guide to understand the grading criteria for this assignment. Other Requirements Your paper should meet the following requirements: Written communication: Written communication should be clear, organized, and free of errors; it should also follow professional standards. APA format: Resources and citations must be formatted according to current APA style and formatting guidelines. Number of references: At least five academic sources, of which at least two should not be course materials. Length of paper: 4–6 double-spaced pages, including the cover page and reference page.

Social Factors and Health Outcomes Week 2 explored the interaction between the “bio” and “psycho” aspects of an illness. The third component of the biopsychosocial model is the focus of this week. Social factors such as socioeconomic status, educational attainment, social interactions and support, and health literacy independently influence the development and progression of illness and health outcomes. Other social determinants of health or illness are race, ethnicity, occupation, geographic location, and religion. These factors influence health through direct psychobiological processes or lifestyle modifications (Martikainen, Bartley, & Lahelma, 2002). To prepare for this Discussion: Review this week’s resources. Consider social factors known to influence health outcomes. Select two factors of interest to you. Consider both macro and micro aspects of medical social work Post an explanation of how TWO social factor influence health outcomes. Describe medical social work interventions that target these factors to improve health outcomes, and explain why you selected these interventions. Explain the tasks a social worker might need to complete in order to reach the desired outcomes. Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the resources and the current literature using appropriate APA format and style. .
