Societies can be organized through social solidarity and social control. Durkheim identified mechanical solidarity based on shared values in simpler societies and organic solidarity based on interdependence in more complex societies. Tönnies distinguished between Gemeinschaft, traditional communities based on kinship and locality, and Gesellschaft, modern societies based on formal social contracts and impersonal relationships.

Towards Automatic Moderation of Online Hate Speech - Emily Spahn, March 2016
This document discusses automated moderation of online hate speech. It defines hate speech and explains the problems it causes. The author builds a model to predict if a comment contains hate speech and what group it targets using over 1 million Reddit comments labeled as hateful or not hateful. Natural language processing techniques like TF-IDF and XGBoost classification are used. The model achieves good performance and could help prioritize comments for human moderators or indicate users with a history of hateful comments. Word embeddings are also examined to find similar words to identified hate terms.
Wo W Community Of Practice
The document discusses World of Warcraft (WoW) guilds as an example of a community of practice (CoP). It describes key aspects of WoW gameplay and guild dynamics, including different types of guilds from casual to hardcore. It analyzes how various dualities of CoP theory, such as participation vs reification and local vs global, are manifested in WoW guilds. The document suggests that while CoP theory explains much guild behavior, additional perspectives may be needed to understand factors like intentionality and identity formation.
Culture part 2
Values, norms, and beliefs make up the key components of culture. Values are principles of right and wrong that guide beliefs even without evidence, and can contradict between ideal and real cultures. Norms are unwritten guidelines for appropriate behavior in specific situations, and can be prescriptive, proscriptive, formal or informal. Norms are enforced through social sanctions from agents of social control, and violations are judged based on how seriously the culture takes the norm, from folkways to mores to laws to taboos.
Ferdinand Toenmies
This document summarizes the sociological theories of Ferdinand Toennies, including his concepts of Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft. [1] Toennies experienced industrialization and population growth in Germany in the late 19th century. [2] He founded the German Sociological Society and opposed the rise of Nazism. [3] Toennies theorized that Gemeinschaft referred to close-knit communities based on kinship, neighborhood, and friendship, maintained through authority and common will. Gesellschaft referred to more impersonal societies based on self-interest and economic exchange.
Ferdinand tonnies contribution to Social Sciences.
Ferdinand Tönnies was a German sociologist born in 1855 who made influential contributions to sociology. He is most famous for his conception of Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft, which refers to two types of social groups - Gemeinschaft representing community and Gesellschaft representing society. Tönnies argued that social groups are formed through either a natural will oriented towards the collective, or an arbitrary will oriented towards individual goals. He applied this framework to understand changes in social structures from rural communities to industrialized cities. Tönnies' work influenced later sociologists like Emile Durkheim and remains relevant for analyzing tensions between community and individualism in modern societies.

A sample 3-month content and activity plan is proposed as a way to structure a new community.Arts marketing
The document discusses several key topics related to arts marketing and audience development. It begins by noting that both public/non-profit and private/for-profit artistic organizations facilitate the creative process and communicate with audiences. It then discusses segmentation and targeting of audiences, and identifies four major challenges for arts marketing: attendance stimulation, audience development, membership development, and fundraising. Finally, it notes there are often two different types of audiences - potential donors and the general public - that arts organizations must consider in their marketing strategies.
introduction-to-sociology-and-anthropology
The document outlines the principles of sociology and anthropology as academic disciplines. It discusses the key areas and branches of each field. Sociology involves the scientific study of human interaction and social processes. It examines groups, institutions, and social change. Anthropology focuses on the study of human culture, behavior, and evolution across time and space. The main branches of anthropology described are physical, cultural, archaeology, and linguistics. Both sociology and anthropology aim to understand human societies and cultures through empirical, objective study.
Nation and Nationalism Theories
Ernest Renan argued that a nation is defined not by objective criteria like language or culture, but by a subjective "desire to live together" and shared memories of suffering. Ernest Gellner viewed nations as modern constructs that emerged with industrialization to serve the needs of standardized education and mobility. Anthony Smith argued that modern nations have roots in pre-modern "ethnies" defined by shared ancestry, history, culture, and territory. Benedict Anderson conceived of nations as "imagined communities" made possible by the development of print capitalism and vernacular languages that allowed for unified communication over great distances.
Speech Community
This document discusses key concepts related to speech communities in sociolinguistics. It defines a speech community as a group that shares similar language ideas, uses, and norms. The document outlines five key elements for defining a speech community, including a population, area, interaction between members, and a shared sense of identity. It also discusses how an individual's participation within a speech community can be measured using their social network and relationships. Language variation is explained as differing based on factors like socioeconomic status within a speech community.
Patterns of Rejection - conclusion
Racial and ethnic relations follow patterns of how dominant groups treat subordinate groups, including segregation, expulsion, genocide, internal colonialism, and rejection through mass violence, displacement, and dehumanization.
Segregation
This document discusses patterns of racial and ethnic relations, focusing on segregation, discrimination, prejudice, and structural violence. It defines segregation as separating people based on race or ethnicity through both de jure segregation enforced by law and de facto segregation in practice. Discrimination can be individual acts that harm members of subordinate groups or institutional practices with harmful effects. Prejudice involves negative generalizations about racial or ethnic groups, while structural violence refers to social structures that deprive individuals of opportunities through both individual and systemic means, with impacts lasting for generations.
Pluralism
The document discusses patterns of racial and ethnic relations, specifically ethnic pluralism and multiculturalism. It defines ethnic pluralism as the coexistence of multiple racial and ethnic groups within a society with equality, mutual respect, and an absence of discrimination and prejudice. However, it notes that ethnic pluralism is often more ideal than reality and depends on population composition. It provides Switzerland as an example of ethnic pluralism through accommodation of French, German, and Italian groups, but notes Switzerland has recently seen a surge in racism against immigrants.
Population transfer
This document discusses patterns of racial and ethnic relations, focusing on population transfer. It defines population transfer as the dominant group expelling the minority group(s), which can be involuntary through expulsion, deportation, forced removal, or ethnic cleansing. It provides examples like the Trail of Tears and Japanese internment in the US. Population transfer can also be "voluntary" through refugees, internally displaced persons, or stateless people fleeing push factors like politics, economy, or environment to pull factors in other areas. The document outlines definitions and statistics on refugees, internally displaced people, and stateless persons, noting there are over 38 million internally displaced people and 10 million stateless people worldwide.
Patterns of racial and ethnic relations
This document discusses patterns of racial and ethnic relations, specifically genocide. It defines genocide as the organized physical elimination of a racial or ethnic group, as outlined in the UN Genocide Convention. The convention defines genocide to include killing, harming, inflicting conditions to destroy a group, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children. Genocide is considered a crime under international law. The document also lists the 10 stages of genocide, as defined by Dr. Gregory Stanton of Genocide Watch, which include classification, symbolization, discrimination, dehumanization, organization, polarization, persecution, preparation, extermination, and denial.
Internal colonialism
Patterns of racial and ethnic relations refer to the regular ways in which dominant groups treat subordinate groups. These patterns include internal colonialism, where non-white indigenous groups in colonized countries are controlled and exploited by white immigrant groups after independence, rather than whites from the colonizing country. Internal colonialism is created through population transfer or expulsion and results in slavery, segregation, discrimination, prejudice, violence, and intergenerational inequalities. It also leads to a split labor market with a primary market for the dominant group and a secondary market for minorities, dividing the working class along racial lines and compounding income and wealth inequality.
Genocide
Genocide is defined as the mass, organized elimination of a racial or ethnic group through killing, causing serious harm, inflicting living conditions to bring about destruction, preventing births, or forcibly transferring children. The UN Genocide Convention of 1948 defines genocide as a crime and lists five punishable acts: genocide, conspiracy to commit genocide, direct and public incitement, attempt, and complicity. Dr. Gregory Stanton of Genocide Watch identified ten stages that often occur in genocides: classification, symbolization, discrimination, dehumanization, organization, polarization, persecution, preparation, extermination, and denial.
Assimilation
Assimilation refers to the process by which minority groups adopt the characteristics of the dominant social group. There are multiple levels of assimilation, including cultural assimilation where minorities adopt the language and customs of the dominant group, structural assimilation where minorities gain full acceptance and participation in social institutions, biological assimilation involving interracial relationships and marriage, and psychological assimilation related to changes in ethnic self-identification. True assimilation requires acceptance of minorities as equals by the dominant group and is a gradual process that varies between different minority communities.
Race & Ethnicity - Part 2
Stereotypes are overgeneralizations about groups that lead to prejudices, which are negative attitudes toward groups. Racism involves believing in the superiority of one racial group and inferiority of others. Discrimination refers to actions that harm subordinate groups and can occur between individuals or be institutionalized through organizational practices. Theories propose prejudice stems from aggression displacement or is socially learned. Discrimination can involve prejudiced or unprejudiced attitudes and behaviors according to Merton's typology, while Feagin identifies four major types of discrimination.
Race & Ethnicity - Part 1
Race and ethnicity are social constructs used to categorize groups based on physical or cultural characteristics. An ethnic group shares cultural or nationality traits, while a race is deemed inferior or superior based on attributes like skin color or hair texture. In a society, the dominant group holds the most power and resources, while subordinate groups face disadvantages and discrimination due to their physical or cultural differences from the dominant group. To be considered a subordinate group, members must experience unequal treatment, have identifiable traits, not choose their status, recognize their subordination, and commonly intermarry within the group.
