  1) summarize in your own words of materials you read;   Social stratification is the classification of people within a society based on socio - economic factors . In other words, social stratification is the relative social position of individuals within a society . The structure of social stratification stems from positional inequalities among individuals, thus the degree of social inequality determines an individual ' s social stratum . As society becomes more complex, social differentiation increases, leading to greater social stratification . There are broadly two factors influencing social stratification : economic factors and social factors . Economic factors are useful in explaining how social stratification is constituted or maintained, while social variables are primarily useful in explaining causation . 2) mention of any new, interesting, or unusual item...

  1) summarize in your own words of materials you read; Dramaturgy is a perspective on social interaction that analogizes it to theater . In this perspective, elements of social interaction depend on time, place, and audience, while the self is considered a dramatic effect emerging from the theatrical scene . Social interaction is likened to a theatrical performance, where individuals present themselves differently depending on the situation and the people they encounter . Thus, one ' s identity is continuously reshaped through interaction . There are front and back stages in this theatrical metaphor . On the front stage, individuals perform for an audience, while on the back stage, away from the audience ' s view, they are relatively free . Dramaturgy is criticized for not contributing to an understanding of society ' s legitimacy. 2) mention of any new...

  1) summarize in your own words of materials you read;   Symbolic interactionism is a theory that argues that humans continuously interact and use a shared language to create common symbols and meaning. This theory helps us understand how people interact to create something symbolic and how the world influences their behavior. That is, it is the understanding and interpretation of the ways in which interactions between individuals are influenced. Most symbolic interactionists argue that physical reality exists through the social definitions of individuals. These social definitions are part of, or develop as, “real.” People give meaning to things and act based on that meaning. That meaning arises through interactions with other people in society. And that meaning is handled and modified by what the person encounters. 2) mention of any new, interesting, or unusual items learned; It is interesting to interpret that people continuously interact socially, that this inter...

  1) summarize in your own words of materials you read; A social network is a social structure made up of social members who interact. It allows us to organize the overall structure of social identity and the patterns of this structure. Social networks are useful for studying relationships between individuals, groups, organizations, or other entire societies. This is because the bonds between them represent the fusion of various social contacts. Social interactions show consistent patterns around the world. This pattern becomes clear as the size of the network increases. There are several levels to social networks. The first is the micro level. It starts at an individual level and grows, or it starts as a small group of individuals. The second is the meso level. This is the level between the micro level and the macro level. It can represent causal processes. The last is the macro level. It tracks the results of interactions. 2) mention of any new, interesting, or unusual item...

  1) summarize in your own words of materials you read;   Social structure is the lasting connections between members of society, individuals or groups. social structure can be an identity, a behavior or relationship that persists in a group or society, or a social institution or standard. If we consider social structures as relationships between individuals or groups, it can be argued that society is made of groups or structures with different structures, meanings, and goals. If we consider social structure as a criterion that determines the behavior of social agents, it is argued that social structure shows how structural decisions occur, such that the behavior of people or groups is guided by implications embedded within the social system. 2) mention of any new, interesting, or unusual items learned; Social structure determines the rules and capabilities of behavior practiced by members of society, and it is interesting to note that in most arguments of sociologists...

  1) summarize in your own words of materials you read; Deviance is behavior that violates cultural standards. There are two main types of deviance. The first is official deviance, which is like a crime, and the second is informal deviance, which is not a crime but is an act that can cause people to dislike it. Informal deviance may vary across cultures. There are various theories about deviance. The first is a physical and biological theory. This suggests that we may have evolved to follow standards in order to fit in with the majority. There is also a social-strain typology that classifies deviance into five types by presenting two criteria. Structural functionalism plays an important role in society because deviance can serve as a standard for distinguishing what is acceptable behavior. 2) mention of any new, interesting, or unusual items learned; It is interesting that the balance of society can be broken due to deviance, that society can change to correct this bal...

  1) summarize in your own words of materials you read; Socialization is a fundamental social theme that constitutes many elements of society. Socialization is what enables people to function well in social life. Because socialization occurs differently depending on each person's background, it is difficult to evaluate which direction socialization is better. Because not all socialization goes well, there are institutions for resocialization. They sometimes use coercive methods, and in this process, the person being resocialized may have elements of himself removed. 2) mention of any new, interesting, or unusual items learned; It is interesting to note that things that are believed to be socially taught, such as empathizing with someone else, are not in fact socially taught, but are in fact biologically innate. It is also interesting to note that culture can influence both biologically and genetically. 3) identify at least one question, concern, or discussion angle th...

  1) summarize in your own words of materials you read; A government is a system or organization that governs an organized community, such as a nation. Many countries have governments, and therefore their forms vary. Representative examples include democracy, totalitarianism, and mixed forms. The government mainly gains power through elections or hereditary succession. The origins of government are unclear, but records show that it arose about 5,000 years ago. Among the reasons for the emergence of government was agriculture. The development of agriculture left a surplus of food, which made it possible to specialize in non-agricultural activities. One of them involves dominating other people. In modern times, republicanism has increased. The war contributed to this growth. 2) mention of any new, interesting, or unusual items learned; Proper management of infrastructure requires central administration and complex social organization. But it is also interesting that they succeed...
