9:11 turning points intro
1. 9/11 was a tragic event that killed nearly 3,000 people, but it did not signify the start of a "clash of civilizations" or usher in an era of hyper-terrorism as some initially thought.
2. While al Qaeda has continued isolated attacks, they were largely defeated by international cooperation against terrorism and failed to repeat another 9/11. Osama bin Laden's death during the Arab Spring further marked their decline.
3. The US overreaction to 9/11 through actions like the Iraq war had unintended consequences and cost the US financially, morally, and diplomatically while distracting from priorities like Afghanistan. 9/11 accelerated history but its impact was more

- Tone, which is the writer's attitude conveyed through their work.
- Mood, which is the overall feeling or atmosphere created through elements like plot, characters, and description.

Utopia and dystopia what should I look for?
This document outlines key areas to analyze when examining the society portrayed in a utopian or dystopian work of fiction. These include:

Creative reading
Creative reading involves reading text in an intensive way to achieve deeper meaning beyond just the printed words. It requires reading between the lines and using the ideas and feelings gathered to inspire other ideas and activities that can be shared. Creative reading is both an activity and an ability. Literary appreciation, understanding literature as a body of written works that convey ideas from a particular culture, is also part of creative reading.
IoT: Utopia or Dystopia
Today, our technology is aiming to achieve IoT all around the world. The main focus of IoT is convenience through connectivity. From home security to your personal health management.

Women during World War 1
Women faced significant inequality in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as they had no right to vote, own property if married, or work in many professions. The women's suffrage movement began to advocate for women's rights. During World War I, women took on more jobs as men went off to war, doing work like driving trucks and ambulances. This expanded women's roles and helped their cause. However, after the war ended, pre-war attitudes largely returned and women's employment levels decreased again as they were expected to return to domestic roles in the home.

Moral Panic
The passage discusses the concept of moral panic as defined by theorist Stanley Cohen. Cohen proposed that a moral panic occurs when a condition, episode, or group is seen as a threat to societal values. The media plays a large role in fueling moral panics by overreacting to behaviors seen as challenging social norms, which helps define and communicate those behaviors and portrays them as a model for others. Examples of things that have caused moral panics in Britain include the film Kidulthood, which portrays youth as deviant, irresponsible, hedonistic, and unaware of consequences.

Andrew sayer lancaster university july2011pres
This document discusses the history and role of critical social science. It makes several key points:
1. Early social science in the 18th/19th centuries mixed description/explanation with normative evaluation. Over the last 200 years there has been a long decline of critical social science and the expulsion of critique, evaluation and values from science.
2. Critical social science grew in the 1970s but has since become more timid. Critique has retreated into academia without threatening existing power structures.
3. Positivists argue social science should exclude values to be objective, while radicals say it is unavoidably value-laden. Both confuse different meanings of objectivity. Values can be open to challenge
Ideology and social science
Ideology refers to the ideas, values, and beliefs that shape a society and guide social and educational policies. While ideas may seem like common sense, they actually evolve over time. An ideology functions to influence people's behaviors and exclude opposing beliefs. Social science differs from physical science in that it deals with the complexities of human nature, behavior, and environments, which are always changing. Social scientists study all aspects of social phenomena and human life across different times and levels of development by identifying problems, creating research questions, gathering and analyzing data, and drawing conclusions.

CAPE SOCIOLOGY UNIT 2 Deviance teachernotes
The document discusses deviance from several sociological perspectives:
1. Functionalist perspective - Deviance can serve positive social functions by affirming norms, clarifying moral boundaries, promoting social unity, and encouraging social change. However, it can also be disruptive.
2. Strain theory perspective - Structural strain occurs when people cannot reach socially admired goals, leading them to turn to deviance.
3. Interactionist perspectives - Labeling theory states deviance is based on social response not just acts. Cultural transmission theory says people learn deviant behaviors through social interaction.
4. Conflict perspective - Norms primarily reflect interests of powerful, who can avoid being labeled deviant, while poor cannot

The document discusses the social constructionist theory of deviance and crime known as labelling theory. It covers several key areas:
- The origins of labelling theory within the Chicago school and theorists like Howard Becker who took an interpretivist approach focusing on how social reality is constructed.
- How labelling theory argues that deviance is defined relatively by societies rather than being intrinsically linked to certain acts. Concepts like folk devils, moral panics, and the role of the media in amplifying deviance are discussed.
- The process of labelling and how it can lead to secondary deviance and a deviant career as individuals internalize the labels placed on them. Mental illness is used as a
What is sociology
Sociology is the scientific study of human behavior, social groups, and society. It examines how social relationships influence individuals and how individuals influence society. Sociologists use critical analysis and look for patterns to understand how history, culture, and social structures shape human actions and experiences, which are often constrained by social norms in ways people may not realize. Sociology aims to objectively study social facts and social life beyond individual perspectives.

Dystopian Worlds

Hitler himself noted propaganda must focus on a few key points that are relentlessly repeated until everyone understands the intended message.

Ho Chi Minh Year 12
Ho Chi Minh was a Vietnamese communist revolutionary leader who led Vietnam's independence movement from France and later unified Vietnam. He was born Nguyen Sinh Cung in 1890 in central Vietnam and used various names throughout his life including Nguyen Tat Thanh and Nguyen Ai Quoc. He worked in London and Paris in the early 1900s where he was exposed to socialism and joined the French Communist Party in 1920 advocating for Vietnamese independence.
Propaganda
Under the Defence of the Realm Act (DORA) passed in 1914, the British government was given wide powers over propaganda and censorship during World War 1. Censorship involved deleting unfavorable news from newspapers and letters from the front to preserve morale, and propaganda aimed to spin events in a way that supported the war effort. As voluntary recruitment fell over time, conscription was introduced in 1916, requiring all British men aged 18 to 41 to join the army unless they worked in essential industries.
WWI women
The war created new opportunities for women's employment outside the home as traditional male jobs became available due to labor shortages from conscription. While women faced resistance initially, by 1915 thousands worked in munitions factories and other industries. After the war, women were expected to return to traditional roles but had gained some independence, and their participation in the workforce helped pave the way for women's suffrage and rights in the early 20th century.
