1) Examine the difference between material and nonmaterial
culture in your world. Identify ten objects that are part of your
regular cultural experience. For each, then identify what aspects
of nonmaterial culture (values and beliefs) that these objects
represent. What has this exercise revealed to you about your
culture?
2) Do you feel that feelings of ethnocentricity or xenocentricity
are more prevalent in U.S. culture? Why do you believe this?
What issues or events might inform this?
3) What do you think of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis? Do you
agree or disagree with it? Cite examples or research to support
your point of view.
4) How do you think your culture would exist if there were no
such thing as a social “norm”? Do you think chaos would ensue
or relative peace could be kept? Explain.
5) Identify several examples of popular culture and describe
how they inform larger culture. How prevalent is the effect of
these examples in your everyday life?
6) Consider some of the specific issues or concerns of your
generation. Are any ideas countercultural? What subcultures
have emerged from your generation? How have the issues of
your generation expressed themselves culturally? How has your
generation made its mark on society’s collective culture?
7) What are some examples of cultural lag that are present in
your life? Do you think technology affects culture positively or
negatively? Explain.
8) Consider a current social trend that you have witnessed,
perhaps situated around family, education, transportation, or
finances. For example, many veterans of the Armed Forces,
after completing tours of duty in the Middle East, are returning
to college rather than entering jobs as veterans as previous
generations did. Choose a sociological approach—
functionalism, conflict theory, or symbolic interactionism—to
describe, explain, and analyze the social issue you choose.
Afterward, determine why you chose the approach you did.
Does it suit your own way of thinking? Or did it offer the best
method to illuminate the social issue?
answer these questions ????
