I. INTRODUCTION to the ASSIGNMENT
Institutionalized Inequalities Persists
Sociology reveals that we live in a stratified society. An individual person’s access to social resources and opportunities varies markedly depending on numerous
factors
, including those
associated with their social location at the always intersecting systems of institutionalized inequalities. Class, race, ethnicity, gender, nationality, religion, and sexual orientation
are important predictors of patterned outcomes at the social group level, across institutions. Examining these arenas at a macro level allows sociologists to achieve a more sophisticated grasp of their workings and the larger social structural dynamics at play. This higher level thinking is also necessary to the creation of well-informed strategies designed to create new forms of justice. Half measures are arguably problematic. As Malcom X once said, "If you stick a knife in my back nine inches and pull it out six inches, there's no progress. If you pull it all the way out that's not progress. Progress is healing the wound that the blow made" (1964, but as relevant as ever today).
People Make History
Sociology also reveals that people make history. We are historical agents who help (re)produce and (potentially) transform institutions and culture moment-to-moment throughout our days perpetually. As historical agents, we have the capacity to contribute to positive change in our daily lives. A more just and sustainable world is possible and looming. “Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing." (
Arundhati Roy)
Social Policy is an Excellent Avenue for Concrete and Critically Informed Social Change.
Social policy is an excellent avenue for achieving social justice
because it moves human and economic resources and facilitates enacting concrete actions for concrete change. Importantly, it allocates our combined social wealth (tax dollars, human energy). We can continue to invest policy dollars and energy into war, policing, punishment, and corporate welfare--deepening the existing social relationships and macro patterns of unequal power. Another route, already underway, is to shift our resources toward policy efforts that address social inequities at their roots, and nourish healthy communities. Your readings in the final section of the class include policy platforms that you may consider models for this paper (though your proposal will necessarily be much smaller in scope, given word count limits).
Other strategies for social change include but are not limited to
legislation
(lawmaking by representative government or other governmental bodies),
litigation
(using the courts),
research
(the work of think tanks, universities, organizations, activists),
community organizing
(movement building; awareness-building;.

Write a 3–5-page essay analyzing from a sociological perspective a chosen diversity issue covered in the media.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

Competency 1: Describe theoretical ideas of power in relation to policy.
Discuss how minority and dominant groups are portrayed in a media piece in relation to the influence of power.
Discuss sociological concepts or theories appropriate for understanding the portrayal of diversity in the media.
Competency 2: Identify historical and contemporary influences of discrimination in U. S. culture.
Summarize a media piece using the sociological perspective on diversity.
Competency 3: Analyze the effects of social policy using aggregated data.
Analyze data that are appropriate for supporting or refuting the central tenets of media piece.
Competency 6: Apply in text the standard writing conventions for the discipline, including structure, voice, person, tone, and citation formatting.
Write coherently to support a central idea in appropriate format and with few errors of grammar, usage, and mechanics.
How are different social groups portrayed in the mass media in contemporary society? How far have we come in terms of reducing or eliminating stereotypical images and portrayals of minority groups? To answer these questions, we need to place them in the context of the economic, technological, and social changes that have shaped postindustrial U.S. society and affected relationships between diverse groups in our society. For example, watching TV sitcoms and dramas today we see not only much greater diversity in cast members but also minority group members playing leading roles, something that was much less common just a few decades ago.
As you analyze how the various media forms portray cultural diversity, another thing to consider is the role of people with power in the media industry—those who make the decisions about what stories and images appear on a TV news program or magazine or newspaper article and how those programs or stories will be framed.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.

Develop a 3-5 page outline of concepts you would like to apply to your own life and identify relevant scholarly sources that will help you with your application of concepts.
As you may have noticed as you have worked through earlier assessments, Sociology is applicable to our everyday lives. We can oftentimes take a sociological concept and use it to explain something that occurs in our own lives. For example, you have learned about norms and how we tend to follow the norms of a society. You can use that to explain how people behave when they are in an elevator. Most people face forward, look up at the numbers, and don't talk.
Many of your experiences can be analyzed using sociological concepts. For your final assessment, Assessment 6, you will complete a Sociology of Me and apply many of the concepts you have learned about in this course to your own life. For Assessment 5, begin to think about which concepts you would like to apply to your own experience, develop an outline, and identify appropriate resources. In order to complete this assessment, you will need to show your understanding of some additional concepts related to social structure, education, and technology/media.
We have learned how a society's culture can influence people. There are other elements in society, however, that also affect our decisions and behavior. Sociological research has found that in addition to culture, social structure and groups also significantly impact many of our individual choices. Our position in the social structure affects our behaviors, attitudes, and ideas. For example, an important element of social structure are groups. We belong to a variety of different groups. Decades of research have documented the impact of group conformity on the individual. Although people tend to often believe that they act as individuals and aren't impacted by others, research has found this is usually not the case. The Milgram experiment in your Resources is a great example. Milgram (1963) examined conformity and obedience and found that people are highly influenced by authority and the demands of conformity, even to the point that we will inflict pain on another person to obey authority.
Sociologists also study education and how it is impacted by a society's culture and structure. The purpose of education is to provide knowledge (facts, skills, cultural norms) to members of a society. In the United States, education teaches us not just skills, but also how to be effective citizens. Education transmits the dominant culture, ensuring that children understand cultural norms and values. Educational attainment impacts life outcomes—it affects our occupation, earnings, work conditions, and health. Thus, education is related to social inequality. We have a tendency to assume that education is an equalizer in the United States, but this is something that is debated by sociologists. Is education equally available to everyone? Studies suggest it is not. Social class can impa.

Our position in the social structure affects our behaviors, attitudes, and ideas. For example, an important element of social structure are groups. We belong to a variety of different groups. Decades of research have documented the impact of group conformity on the individual. Although people tend to often believe that they act as individuals and aren't impacted by others, research has found this is usually not the case. The Milgram experiment in your Resources is a great example. Milgram (1963) examined conformity and obedience and found that people are highly influenced by authority and the demands of conformity, even to the point that we will inflict pain on another person to obey authority.
Sociologists also study education and how it is impacted by a society's culture and structure. The purpose of education is to provide knowledge (facts, skills, cultural norms) to members of a society. In the United States, education teaches us not just skills, but also how to be effective citizens. Education transmits the dominant culture, ensuring that children understand cultural norms and values. Educational attainment impacts life outcomes—it affects our occupation, earnings, work conditions, and health. Thus, education is related to social inequality. We have a tendency to assume that education is an equalizer in the United States, but this is something that is debated by sociologists. Is education equally available to everyone? Studies suggest it is not. Social class can impa.
THE PURPOSE Knowledge After completing this assignment, .docx
THE PURPOSE:
Knowledge:
After completing this assignment, you will understand:
1) The scope and diversity of psychology as a discipline.
2) How psychologists working from different philosophical and theoretical perspectives make different
contributions to our understanding of particular psychological topics.
Skills:
After completing this assignment, you will be able to:
1) Assess the strengths and weaknesses of various explanations for your topic.
2) Explain how the Integration and/or competition between explanations from various perspectives helps
psychology advance our understanding of human behavior and mental processing.
YOUR TASK:
Your task is to select ONE psychological topic you find particularly interesting. This may be a topic we have covered in
the course or a psychological topic we have not covered. You will then examine this topic from three different
philosophical or theoretical perspectives within psychology. For example, you could examine your topic from any of the
following philosophical perspectives: physiological, behavioral, cognitive, social, humanistic, evolutionary,
psychoanalytic, etc). Alternatively, you could opt to examine your topic more specifically using three different theories,
which may or may not differ in their philosophical perspectives. For example, imagine that you choose “bullying” as
your topic. You could examine how bullying is explained from a biological, behavioral, and social perspective (three
different philosophical perspectives). Alternatively, you could choose to examine how three different theories attempt
to explain bullying. Two of these theories might be theories from a “social” perspective and one might be a theory from
a “biological” perspective.
In either case, you must utilize and cite original sources for those perspectives in your analysis/discussion. This means
that you must research your topic to find three different explanations for your topic. Your analysis cannot be based on
personal opinion alone.
Write-up: Your write-up should begin with a general overview of your topic and the reasons why it is particularly
interesting or relevant to you. This introduction should be followed by an analysis of your topic from three different
philosophical or theoretical perspectives. Your analysis should demonstrate a general understanding of your topic and
the fundamental principles used by each philosophical or theoretical perspective to explain that topic (using at least
three academic sources outside of your textbook as source material). In addition, you should discuss whether the
explanations offered by the different perspectives are complimentary to one another or contradict one another. Finally,
your analysis should include your own personal reflection of these perspectives and an informed assessment of what
you see as the strengths and weaknesses of each based on your research of them.
THE CRITERIA:

2. Describe the functionalist view of social stratification, and the conflict theory's view of social stratification. Then take a pro or con position on each of the following three points: first, social stratification is necessary for societies to exist and prosper; second, the United States functions, overall, as a meritocracy; and third, human beings-driven as they are by human nature-are incapable of ever creating and/or living in a classless society.

Develop a 4-5 page analysis of your experience with gender sociali.docx
Develop a 4-5 page analysis of your experience with gender socialization. In doing so, analyze how gender is created by society, specifically looking at children's toys and/or clothing.
Culture is the glue that holds a society together—it is what encourages the members of that society to cooperate with each other as much as possible. We learn culture through socialization, the lifelong social experience. From birth we are taught how to be members of our society.
The most common agents of socialization are our family, peers, school, and media. The family, for example, influences a child's development by such things as the way the parents hold the baby, look at it, talk to it, and respond to its needs. We take on typical gender roles from the beginning as girls are given pink clothes while boys are given blue. Family socialization is reinforced or modified by experiences at school and with peers, by the mass media, and by interaction with others. Socialization, the lifelong social experience through which we learn culture, is vital to becoming members of a society.
In this assessment, we look at the sociological concepts of culture and socialization and how they impact our behavior and attitudes.
Demonstration of Proficiency

Second Self vs. Doubling
The body itself has various sorts of “others” that echo and complement it.
Sometimes our speech can be more revealing than our conscious thoughts. Consider how people say, “broken up” “going to pieces” “Pull yourself together” “get a grip” “out of his mind” “beside himself” all of these are indications to, or allude to the division or existence of other selves.
Second Self vs. Doubling Cont.
Inner self: frequently suggests a twofoldness which is purely internal.
Double: often times implies a duplication of identity.
Second Self: helps us understand the difference of the self by allowing us to have a distinct first self.
Second Self vs. Doubling Cont.
When there is a second self:
The first self is on the foreground of the reader’s attention. He or she is the one that the reader tries to connect to. The second self is usually conscious of the first self’s existence. The reader usually interprets the second self as the intruder and tends to remain half-shadowed. The motivations of the second self tend to be ambiguous.
Second Self vs. Doubling Cont.
Ego is the lens through which you experience physical reality.
The superego reflects the internalization of cultural rules, mainly taught by parents applying their guidance and influence.
Id: is the unorganized part of the personality structure that contains a human's basic, instinctual drives. Id is the only component of personality that is present from birth.
Eco criticism
(This is a literary theory, not a literary theme.)
Eco criticism: the application of ecology and ecological concepts to the study of literature.
Essentially it is the study of literature and the physical environment and or nature in order to raise awareness of human interaction with the natural world.
When they say nature scholars mean: the environment before it was impacted by technology- the land its flora, its waterways, living creature, the ecosystem etc..
How does the text depict character interacting with nature? What argument is constructed as a result of this interaction or lack of interaction?
Feminist Criticism
(This is a literary theory, not a literary theme.)
Feminist Criticism: the application of a feminist lens onto a study of literature.
This school of thought studies the ways in which women are depicted or their lack of depiction in a text. How is their representation connected to patriarchal threads of power? This theory considers the objectification and subordination of women. This also studies stereotypical depictions of women and their impact on the reader.
Feminist criticism focuses on gender identity. This criticism resists the idea that men are superior to women and considers social conditioning as a the ...

Socioautobiography Assignment GuidelinesThe purpose of this assign.docx
Socioautobiography Assignment Guidelines
The purpose of this assignment is to give you the opportunity to apply the sociological imagination to your everyday life: to make connections between your everyday life and the broad sociocultural structures within which you live. In this assignment, you will reference appropriate Terminal Course Objectives (TCOs) that relate to your socioautobiography. You can find the TCOs in this course listed in the Syllabus and in the weekly objectives. This assignment can be related to any and all of the TCOs.
The Socioautobiography is a reflective paper that allows you the opportunity to explore the interconnections between biography (a slice of your life), the social structure, and culture. In preparation for this paper, please read this document, Socioautobiography Assignment Guideline boldface and underlined. At the end of the paragraph where a concept is used, indicate which TCOs your sociological concept refers. This should be done using parenthetical citation. An example of how to do this is provided below.
The final paper will be due at the end of Week 5. It should be three- to four-pages in length and may be in any format you choose. Feel free to get creative. You may choose to do a standard APA style paper or you can do your socioautobiography as a news story, movie review of your life, letter home to family, obituary, poem, lyrics, dialogue, old time radio program, or Shakespearean play whatever format you choose. Be sure to identify your format, double-space your paper, and correctly use a minimum of six sociological concepts covered in the weekly readings or lecture. Your six concepts should be in boldface and underlined. Consider the following example:
As I think about my college experience, because of my lack of English language skills, I realized that I was at a disadvantage with other students who were from upper-middle-class suburbs. I grew up in a farming community and, while there was the expectation that farm kids were going off to college, the community’s educational policy was based on the idea that farm kids would take over the family farm. As such, learning proper academic language was not a high priority (TCO 5 and TCO 9).
Note how, in this mini-socioautobiography, there are references to social class, education, and place of residence.Below are guidelines to follow as you work on your socioautobiography assignment.
· Papers should contain 3-to 4-pages of text, double-spaced (this does not include the title page).
· Refer to and properly use at least six sociological concepts covered in the lectures or textbook reading.
· Underline andboldface these concepts.
· Connect your concepts to the TCOs. Indicate the TCOs covered in parentheses, as demonstrated in the assignment instructions.
· Cite the textbook and/or lecture for the concepts and the Syllabus or course objectives for the TCOs in addition to any outside source material used both I body and on your reference page.

Week 5, we studied social stratification and how it influences what goes on in many social interactions among people. After you have read the reading assignment and lecture for this week, please respond to all parts of the discussion by the due date assigned:
What are some of the factors that affect social mobility? Can these be overcome?
Do you believe the structural-functionalist or the social conflict approach best explains social stratification? Why?
How does the media reflect attitudes on gender as far as depicting women and men in very traditional roles? Provide two detailed examples that substantiate your points—these can be an advertisement, television show, website, or magazine.

Most women experience their closest friendships with those of th.docx
Most women experience their closest friendships with those of the same sex. Men have suffered more of a stigma in terms of sharing deep bonds with other men. Open affection and connection is not actively encouraged among men. Recent changes in society might impact this, especially with the advent of the meterosexual male. “The meterosexual male is less interested in blood lines, traditions, family, class, gender, than in choosing who they want to be and who they want to be with” (Vernon, 2010, p. 204).
In this week’s reading material, the following philosophers discuss their views on this topic: Simone de Beauvoir, Thomas Aquinas, MacIntyre, Friedman, Hunt, and Foucault. Make sure to incorporate their views as you answer each discussion question. Think about how their views may be similar or different from your own. In at least 250 words total, please answer each of the following, drawing upon your reading materials and your personal insight:
To what extent do you think women still have a better opportunity to forge deeper friendships than men? What needs to change to level the friendship playing field for men, if anything?
How is the role of the meterosexual man helping to forge a new pathway for male friendships?

THE PURPOSE Knowledge After completing this assignment, .docx
THE PURPOSE:
Knowledge:
After completing this assignment, you will understand:
1) The scope and diversity of psychology as a discipline.
2) How psychologists working from different philosophical and theoretical perspectives make different
contributions to our understanding of particular psychological topics.
Skills:
After completing this assignment, you will be able to:
1) Assess the strengths and weaknesses of various explanations for your topic.
2) Explain how the Integration and/or competition between explanations from various perspectives helps
psychology advance our understanding of human behavior and mental processing.
YOUR TASK:
Your task is to select ONE psychological topic you find particularly interesting. This may be a topic we have covered in
the course or a psychological topic we have not covered. You will then examine this topic from three different
philosophical or theoretical perspectives within psychology. For example, you could examine your topic from any of the
following philosophical perspectives: physiological, behavioral, cognitive, social, humanistic, evolutionary,
psychoanalytic, etc). Alternatively, you could opt to examine your topic more specifically using three different theories,
which may or may not differ in their philosophical perspectives. For example, imagine that you choose “bullying” as
your topic. You could examine how bullying is explained from a biological, behavioral, and social perspective (three
different philosophical perspectives). Alternatively, you could choose to examine how three different theories attempt
to explain bullying. Two of these theories might be theories from a “social” perspective and one might be a theory from
a “biological” perspective.
In either case, you must utilize and cite original sources for those perspectives in your analysis/discussion. This means
that you must research your topic to find three different explanations for your topic. Your analysis cannot be based on
personal opinion alone.
Write-up: Your write-up should begin with a general overview of your topic and the reasons why it is particularly
interesting or relevant to you. This introduction should be followed by an analysis of your topic from three different
philosophical or theoretical perspectives. Your analysis should demonstrate a general understanding of your topic and
the fundamental principles used by each philosophical or theoretical perspective to explain that topic (using at least
three academic sources outside of your textbook as source material). In addition, you should discuss whether the
explanations offered by the different perspectives are complimentary to one another or contradict one another. Finally,
your analysis should include your own personal reflection of these perspectives and an informed assessment of what
you see as the strengths and weaknesses of each based on your research of them.

2. Describe the functionalist view of social stratification, and the conflict theory's view of social stratification. Then take a pro or con position on each of the following three points: first, social stratification is necessary for societies to exist and prosper; second, the United States functions, overall, as a meritocracy; and third, human beings-driven as they are by human nature-are incapable of ever creating and/or living in a classless society.

Develop a 4-5 page analysis of your experience with gender sociali.docx
Develop a 4-5 page analysis of your experience with gender socialization. In doing so, analyze how gender is created by society, specifically looking at children's toys and/or clothing.
Culture is the glue that holds a society together—it is what encourages the members of that society to cooperate with each other as much as possible. We learn culture through socialization, the lifelong social experience. From birth we are taught how to be members of our society.
The most common agents of socialization are our family, peers, school, and media. The family, for example, influences a child's development by such things as the way the parents hold the baby, look at it, talk to it, and respond to its needs. We take on typical gender roles from the beginning as girls are given pink clothes while boys are given blue. Family socialization is reinforced or modified by experiences at school and with peers, by the mass media, and by interaction with others. Socialization, the lifelong social experience through which we learn culture, is vital to becoming members of a society.
In this assessment, we look at the sociological concepts of culture and socialization and how they impact our behavior and attitudes.
Demonstration of Proficiency

Analyze how gender-specific messages of childhood clothing and/or toys reflect larger societal expectations.
Competency 6: Compose text that articulates meaning relevant to its purpose and audience.
Develop text using organization, structure, and transitions that demonstrate understanding of cohesion between main and subtopics.
For this assessment, you analyze how gender is created by society, specifically looking at children's toys and/or clothing. The purpose of this assessment is twofold:

Second Self vs. Doubling
The body itself has various sorts of “others” that echo and complement it.
Sometimes our speech can be more revealing than our conscious thoughts. Consider how people say, “broken up” “going to pieces” “Pull yourself together” “get a grip” “out of his mind” “beside himself” all of these are indications to, or allude to the division or existence of other selves.
Second Self vs. Doubling Cont.
Inner self: frequently suggests a twofoldness which is purely internal.
Double: often times implies a duplication of identity.
Second Self: helps us understand the difference of the self by allowing us to have a distinct first self.
Second Self vs. Doubling Cont.
When there is a second self:
The first self is on the foreground of the reader’s attention. He or she is the one that the reader tries to connect to. The second self is usually conscious of the first self’s existence. The reader usually interprets the second self as the intruder and tends to remain half-shadowed. The motivations of the second self tend to be ambiguous.
Second Self vs. Doubling Cont.
Ego is the lens through which you experience physical reality.
The superego reflects the internalization of cultural rules, mainly taught by parents applying their guidance and influence.
Id: is the unorganized part of the personality structure that contains a human's basic, instinctual drives. Id is the only component of personality that is present from birth.
Eco criticism
(This is a literary theory, not a literary theme.)
Eco criticism: the application of ecology and ecological concepts to the study of literature.
Essentially it is the study of literature and the physical environment and or nature in order to raise awareness of human interaction with the natural world.
When they say nature scholars mean: the environment before it was impacted by technology- the land its flora, its waterways, living creature, the ecosystem etc..
How does the text depict character interacting with nature? What argument is constructed as a result of this interaction or lack of interaction?
Feminist Criticism
(This is a literary theory, not a literary theme.)
Feminist Criticism: the application of a feminist lens onto a study of literature.
This school of thought studies the ways in which women are depicted or their lack of depiction in a text. How is their representation connected to patriarchal threads of power? This theory considers the objectification and subordination of women. This also studies stereotypical depictions of women and their impact on the reader.
Feminist criticism focuses on gender identity. This criticism resists the idea that men are superior to women and considers social conditioning as a the ...

Socioautobiography Assignment GuidelinesThe purpose of this assign.docx
Socioautobiography Assignment Guidelines
The purpose of this assignment is to give you the opportunity to apply the sociological imagination to your everyday life: to make connections between your everyday life and the broad sociocultural structures within which you live. In this assignment, you will reference appropriate Terminal Course Objectives (TCOs) that relate to your socioautobiography. You can find the TCOs in this course listed in the Syllabus and in the weekly objectives. This assignment can be related to any and all of the TCOs.
The Socioautobiography is a reflective paper that allows you the opportunity to explore the interconnections between biography (a slice of your life), the social structure, and culture. In preparation for this paper, please read this document, Socioautobiography Assignment Guideline boldface and underlined. At the end of the paragraph where a concept is used, indicate which TCOs your sociological concept refers. This should be done using parenthetical citation. An example of how to do this is provided below.
The final paper will be due at the end of Week 5. It should be three- to four-pages in length and may be in any format you choose. Feel free to get creative. You may choose to do a standard APA style paper or you can do your socioautobiography as a news story, movie review of your life, letter home to family, obituary, poem, lyrics, dialogue, old time radio program, or Shakespearean play whatever format you choose. Be sure to identify your format, double-space your paper, and correctly use a minimum of six sociological concepts covered in the weekly readings or lecture. Your six concepts should be in boldface and underlined. Consider the following example:
As I think about my college experience, because of my lack of English language skills, I realized that I was at a disadvantage with other students who were from upper-middle-class suburbs. I grew up in a farming community and, while there was the expectation that farm kids were going off to college, the community’s educational policy was based on the idea that farm kids would take over the family farm. As such, learning proper academic language was not a high priority (TCO 5 and TCO 9).
Note how, in this mini-socioautobiography, there are references to social class, education, and place of residence.Below are guidelines to follow as you work on your socioautobiography assignment.
· Papers should contain 3-to 4-pages of text, double-spaced (this does not include the title page).
· Refer to and properly use at least six sociological concepts covered in the lectures or textbook reading.
· Underline andboldface these concepts.
· Connect your concepts to the TCOs. Indicate the TCOs covered in parentheses, as demonstrated in the assignment instructions.
· Cite the textbook and/or lecture for the concepts and the Syllabus or course objectives for the TCOs in addition to any outside source material used both I body and on your reference page.

When you think of various groups (race, class, and gender) in society, which ones have the most power and which ones have the least? Using Intersection Theory, identify two groups that have unequal amounts of power and resources, being specific and using the text and outside resources. For each group, has the power dynamic changed over time? Do you think it will change in the future? Why or why not?

Most women experience their closest friendships with those of the same sex. Men have suffered more of a stigma in terms of sharing deep bonds with other men. Open affection and connection is not actively encouraged among men. Recent changes in society might impact this, especially with the advent of the meterosexual male. “The meterosexual male is less interested in blood lines, traditions, family, class, gender, than in choosing who they want to be and who they want to be with” (Vernon, 2010, p. 204).
In this week’s reading material, the following philosophers discuss their views on this topic: Simone de Beauvoir, Thomas Aquinas, MacIntyre, Friedman, Hunt, and Foucault. Make sure to incorporate their views as you answer each discussion question. Think about how their views may be similar or different from your own. In at least 250 words total, please answer each of the following, drawing upon your reading materials and your personal insight:
To what extent do you think women still have a better opportunity to forge deeper friendships than men? What needs to change to level the friendship playing field for men, if anything?
How is the role of the meterosexual man helping to forge a new pathway for male friendships?

Moral rights as opposed to legal rights are not dependent on a polit.docx
Moral rights as opposed to legal rights are not dependent on a political system for their legitimacy. This is the category of rights that all human air--breathers, as opposed to non-human air-breathers--- should be afforded to them by virtue of their having intrinsic value and not only instrumental value. These rights, or entitlements, are supported by various ethical theories when for instance the Universalism thesis under Utilitarianism requires that all persons' (women's and men's) interests be considered in the calculations of Hedonistic options available. Kantianism insists that all Unverbalizable maxims be respectful of the rights of all persons to be treated with dignity and respect--which includes freedom of choice. Virtue ethics, more modernly, does not distinguish basic "good " character traits of excellence such as integrity, good judgment, role identity--not as a woman or a man in any given role but, the ability to fulfill the duties of that role within a community by a member of either sex---, holism--the ability to habitually practice the other virtues in an integrative manner while recognizing the importance of other persons to the community and vise versa. The various Justice theories do not relegate justice based on sex, just on relevant differences based on ability, endeavor, contribution, etc.
Do current generatons ( including current businesses) owe a duty to future generations to produce products and conduct business in an environmentally sustainable manner so that future generations are assured of inheriting a livable planet( one on which reasonable persons would want to live); even if it means that current generations must sacrifice many preferences in current lifestyles? Why or why not?
First define environmental sustainability (hint: the U.N. has a good definition). Also, the term "future generations" includes all of the yet to be borne, not those that are younger than you but are breathing.
Use the following for your analysis:
1. Kohlberg’s Moral Development Model;
2. The Kew Garden Principles; or Dr. Laura’s Three Prerequisites for Assigning Moral Credit or Culpability;
3. At least two appropriate Ethical Theories
4. Moral Imagination;
5. Moral Courage;

Research Summary
Firms seeking to avoid reputational spillovers that can arise from dangerous, illegal, and
unethical behavior at supply chain factories are increasingly relying on private social auditors to
provide strategic information about suppliers’ conduct. But little is known about what influences
auditors’ ability to identify and report problems. Our analysis of nearly 17,000 supplier audits
reveals that auditors report fewer violations when individual auditors have audited the factory
before, when audit teams are less experienced or less trained, when audit teams are all-male, and
when audits are paid for by the audited supplier. This first comprehensive and systematic
analysis of supply chain monitoring identifies previously overlooked transaction costs and
suggests strategies to develop governance structures to mitigate reputational risks by reducing
information asymmetries in supply chains.
Managerial Summary
Firms reliant on supply chains to manufacture their goods risk reputational harm if the working
conditions in those factories are revealed to be dangerous, illegal, or otherwise problematic.
While firms are increasingly relying on private-sector ‘social auditors’ to assess factory
conditions, little has been known about the accuracy of those assessments. We analyzed nearly
17,000 code-of-conduct audits conducted at nearly 6,000 suppliers around the world. We found
that audits yield fewer violations when the audit team has been at that particular supplier before,
when audit teams are less experienced or less trained, when audit teams are all-male, and when
the audits were paid for by the supplier instead of by the buyer. We describe implications for
firms relying on social auditors and for auditing firms.

Morality Relativism & the Concerns it RaisesI want to g.docx
Morality Relativism & the Concerns it Raises
“I want to give moral relativism the good spanking it deserves.”
Peter Kreef philosophy professor, Boston College
Does “relativism” need a spanking?2005 new Pope Benedict warned of the “onslaught of moral relativism”He “has characterized it as the major evil. Some observers believe he is taking a stance in the tense cultural wars in the United States.” (NPR radio, 2005)Mormons agree: “moral relativism/militant atheism”Culture wars?

Source: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4618049
Defining the Terms: RelativismMoral relativism: morality is purely culturalMoral differences & disagreements are irreconcilableFor example, Inuit Eskimos practice infanticide: one woman had borne 20 children but killed 10 at birth.Eskimos also practice euthanasia: when the elderly become too feeble to travel, they’re left to freeze.Hence, there’s no one universal moral truth for all times, places, peoples and culturesThe only possible good is toleration & mutual respect of pluralistic values
*
James Rachels, “The Challenge of Cultural Relativism” (Fifty Readings, 2nd Ed.), 397.
Defining the Terms: AbsolutismMoral absolutism: there are clear moral truths to govern all ethical issues regardless of situation.Immoral to accept the justifiability of two conflicting positions on any given ethical issueFor example: with this position, it would be unacceptable for Bush (pro-life) to say Eskimo infanticide practices are understandable and permissible among EskimosOr if polygamy or underage marriage is wrong, it is wrong everywhere and at all times.But what is “underage marriage”?
Moral Absolutism and Human KnowledgeName some fields of human knowledge where we deal with facts and have made great progress.Scientific theory must deal with hard dataNo science that claims absolute knowledge;Fallibility is the hallmark of scienceBut fallibility does not mean all theories are equal.Why should ethics be any different?If moral truths are not absolute, why should that prove that all moral values are equal?We can measure progress in science but what about ethics?
Illogic of Extreme Moral RelativismIn extreme relativism, no one can rightly pass judgment on others’ values/social practicesConsider Afghan Taliban Culture & Values:Ban on women's work outside the homeBan on women's presence in radio or televisionBan on women at schools or universitiesEthic of absolute relativism is self-contradictory:If I pass judgment on others for passing any judgment, am I not passing judgment on others?
Relativism with Norms Normative relativism: while cultural values clearly differ, nevertheless there are some general purposes shared by all moral codes.A socially accepted way of regulating conflicts of interests in society to preserve that people and culture with rules shaped by situations to that end.

human rights changed, or purported to change, international
law and how international law as a whole can be made more
effective in a post-human rights era. This Article is the first to
argue that international human rights law as a whole-
whatever its much disputed benefits for human rights
themselves-appears to have expanded and changed
international law in ways that have made it weaker, less likely
to generate compliance, and more likely to produce
interstate friction and conflict. The debate around
international law and human rights should be reframed to
consider these costs and to evaluate whether international
law, including the work of the United Nations, should focus
on a stronger, more limited core of international legal norms
that protects international peace and security, not human
rights. Human rights could be advanced through domestic
and regional legal systems, through the the development of
non-binding international norms, and through iterative
processes of international reporting and monitoring-a model
not unlike the Paris Climate Agreement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
