Over the course of 15 school days, topics progress from the American Revolution through Early National Period, Market Revolution, Jacksonian Era, Reform Movements, Westward Expansion, Sectionalism, Civil War, and Reconstruction.
7.1 history of immigration
Canada has a long history of immigration that began with colonization and continues today. In the late 19th century, immigration increased with the completion of the transcontinental railway and profitable farming opportunities. In the early 20th century, the government aggressively recruited European immigrants through policies like offering free land. Starting in the 1920s, racist policies severely restricted or banned immigration from Asia and limited numbers from other regions. After World War 2, immigration policies liberalized but still discriminated based on race until the 1960s-70s when a non-discriminatory points system was introduced and Canada adopted multiculturalism.
Canada in the First Decade of the 20th Century
This document provides an overview of Canada in the early 20th century. It discusses Canada being a dominion under Queen Victoria and King Edward VII, with Wilfred Laurier as prime minister from 1896 to 1911. It also mentions the Northwest Mounted Police establishing law and order in the Yukon, a policy of assimilating Indigenous peoples through residential schools, and Canadians fighting in the Boer War in South Africa. Finally, it references technological advances, such as the Silver Dart aircraft and faster transatlantic travel, helping to shrink the world as Canada entered its century.
(2012) The Canadian Historical Experience (11 MB)
The document provides an overview of the Canadian historical experience from early European exploration and settlement to modern times. It discusses key events and periods that have shaped Canada's identity, including the French and British colonial periods, tensions between French and English communities, the American Revolutionary War, waves of immigration, the development of national policies like official bilingualism, and Canada's relationship with the United States. The overall theme is how Canada's history, with its mix of French, British, indigenous, and immigrant influences in North America, has led to its status as a distinct society from the United States.
Historical and Biographical Approach
This document discusses different approaches to analyzing literary works, including biographical criticism and historical criticism. Biographical criticism examines details about the author's life, such as their personal experiences, political and economic backgrounds, and significant life events, to understand how those influences are reflected in their works. Historical criticism analyzes the economic, political, social, and cultural contexts during the time a work was produced to explain its content. The document provides examples of how an author may incorporate facts about their own life or the time period into literary works through elements like characters and settings.
Social stratification hand out
1. Social stratification refers to the categorization and ranking of people into hierarchical social groups based on characteristics like economic status, culture, race, gender, etc.
2. Functionalists view social stratification as serving important social functions like maintaining social order and ensuring that important roles are filled by qualified individuals. Davis and Moore argue that social inequality is an unconsciously evolved mechanism for societies to efficiently organize themselves.
3. Theories of Caribbean social stratification include the plantation society model of distinct upper, intermediate, and lower castes; plural society theory which describes culturally distinct ethnic groups coexisting under one political system; and creole society theory describing a hybrid culture with elements of both ascriptive and merit-based

Conflictandfunctionalisttheory 101015102833-phpapp01
Conflict theory and functionalist theory provide different perspectives on society. Conflict theory, developed by Marx, views society as consisting of groups that compete over scarce resources, leading to conflict and struggle. Functionalist theory, developed by Durkheim, views society as a system of interrelated parts that work together to maintain stability and equilibrium. Private schools can be seen through either lens - conflict theory may see them as perpetuating class divisions, while functionalism may see them as fulfilling important social functions and helping to socialize children.
Wolmers sociology 6a lesson one
Sociology has progressed through several stages driven by massive social transformations over the past two centuries. The Industrial Revolution and population shifts to cities disrupted traditional social organizations. Scientific and technological advances changed systems of production, weakening families and communities. Millions moved from rural areas to cities for work, overwhelming housing and causing social problems. New political ideas emerged emphasizing individual rights and liberties over obligations to rulers. Sociology developed to study and understand society and human behavior within these changing social contexts.
Socialstratification12 1
The document discusses two theoretical perspectives on social stratification: functionalism and Marxism. Functionalists view stratification as necessary to maintain order and stability by rewarding individuals based on their performance and contribution to society. However, Marxists see stratification as divisive and a means for one class to exploit others through unequal control and ownership of resources and political power.

Key events discussed include the Spanish-American War and the establishment of policies like Dollar Diplomacy and the Good Neighbor Policy.
CSEC History The apprenticeship system 1834
The apprenticeship system that was implemented in British colonies after slavery was abolished aimed to gradually transition former slaves to freedom while ensuring continued sugar production. However, the system largely failed to protect apprentices and treat them humanely. Apprentices faced harsh punishments, including whipping, solitary confinement, and being chained, for minor infractions. They were denied basic needs and dignity. While some apprentices were able to work independently and eventually own land, the overall system allowed planters to continue exploiting apprentices as if they were still property.

CAPE Sociology Social stratification in_caribbean
Social stratification in the Caribbean has traditionally been defined along lines of class, status, power, race, ethnicity, color, gender, and education. Systems varied between countries but generally involved upper, middle, and lower classes divided along racial lines. Over time, factors like industrialization, increased opportunities, and expanded education and political systems weakened old social orders defined by race and allowed for more mobility between classes. While mobility increased for some groups, inconsistencies remained for those from poorer backgrounds. Gender also emerged as an increasingly important factor in social stratification.
Caribbean Studies - Module 1 - Periods of caribbean_history
The document provides an overview of the history of the Caribbean, beginning with the indigenous Amerindian peoples like the Tainos and Kalinago. It then discusses the arrival of Europeans starting with Columbus, and the establishment of systems like encomienda and repartimiento that exploited the Amerindians. As the indigenous populations declined, indentured servitude from Europe was introduced. However, African slavery became the dominant labor system on plantations from the 1600s-1800s, with over 3 million enslaved Africans brought to the Caribbean. Life as a slave was extremely difficult, with long work days and brutal punishments.
CAPE Sociology 2012 m2 q4
The document discusses secularization of religion in Caribbean society. It provides arguments both for and against secularization using Wilson's theory of secularization. It examines secularization in four key elements - statistical decline in religious participation, growth of rationalism replacing religion, disengagement of churches from society, and religious pluralism fragmenting society. While some statistics show declining religiosity, others show growth in sects and ethnic religions. Overall, secularization is a complex phenomenon with evidence both supporting and limiting its presence in the Caribbean.
CAPE Sociology - African retention
Herskovits argues that African culture survived slavery and is still evident in parts of Caribbean culture today. He identifies three main ways African cultural forms survived: through survivals which closely resemble original African forms; through syncretisms where new world elements are identified with old world counterparts; and through reinterpretations where African culture is adapted to the new environment in a way that may not look like traditional retention on the surface. Herskovits examined Caribbean family forms and provided examples for each way African culture was retained, such as burying the umbilical cord under a fruit tree or identifying Catholic saints with African deities.
CSEC History Cuban revolution
Fidel Castro overthrew the corrupt dictator Fulgencio Batista in 1959 and installed a communist government in Cuba. He nationalized private property, collectivized farms, increased education and healthcare, but also eliminated elections and disregarded human rights. This alienated the middle class. The U.S. tried to overthrow Castro through the failed Bay of Pigs invasion and imposed an embargo, further impoverishing Cuba. Castro's reforms changed Cuba from a country ruled by a dictator to a communist state with universal healthcare and education but no political freedom or democratic elections.

While fertility control may help development by reducing strain on limited resources, most Caribbean sociologists agree it is not the key to development for the region. True development requires improving human resources through better education and healthcare, more equitable distribution of resources, and gaining technological assistance to support industrialization. Fertility control alone is not sufficient without also addressing these other social and economic factors.
Cape sociology rostow's model
Rostow outlined five stages of economic growth and development in societies:
1. Traditional societies are agriculture-based with limited social mobility and production.
2. Preconditions for take-off introduce new ideas, financial institutions, and investments in transportation and education.
3. Take-off integrates new technology and methods into agriculture and develops manufacturing industries through financial investments, stimulating modernization.
