Once again for this discussion i will use examples i learnt in class and have seen around. I will be focusing on government and how in different countries they rule differently and how they are set in place.
To start off here in our country we have a democratic government, one that neccesarily gives us freedom of choise and expression, here we have the liberty of even chosing our government every so years. Now here's where things differ,  there are some countries that do not alow their people to have such freedom like ourselves. There is a country we discussed in class that ,i dont quite remember the name, doesn't allow even the slightest leniency for people to even decide what they want to watch on tv. I think that it is very sad how these people are forced to live by how the ruling party wants, meaning that the people aren't able to move up there social status or even decide how to live a daily life.
Belize is blessed to have a more or less democratic government we can move our statuses based on wealth and also education, we are free to be entrepreneurs and create our own job opportunities.

Economy refers to the structuring/functioning of the development and utilization of human and natural resources in the production , processing , distribution and consumption of goods and services. An important thing is that it influence habits, skills, knowledge and motivation. Work gives people an income and also provides them some self fullfilment and part of their identity. Ever since the first people traded one item for another, barter system ,there has been some form of economy in the world. It is how people decide what they have to meet their wants and needs.As societies grows and changes, so do the different economies.  The first economies arrived when people started raising crops and domesticating animals. In this economy system exists agricultural society , industrial revolution, post industrial,  sectors in the economy and this later was realized as globalisation.

Politics also decides goal and distribution of power.Government on the other hand is a powerful group that decides the society's political life. A government can be chosen by the people or be passed on by one family who is said to have the most power and influence.

For this discussion I want to focua more on what I understood is industrial revolution. According to what was discussed in class industrial revolution was the process of change from an agrarian environment, handicraft economy, to one dominated by industrys and machine manufacture. This involved new sources of energy and power , faster transportation , mechanization, higher productivity and organizing human labour. It is said to have began in England in the 18th century and from there spread to other parts of the world during the 19th to 20th Century. In addition; it marks a major turning point in history, almost every aspect of a daily life was influenced. Also the changes brought affected people's lives as much as political revolution. In addition it was the most efficient means of production.

For my discussion on race and ethnicity I decided to use more things I've seen in real life that caught my attention. I was interested in knowing that we can be born from race but later on we learn our ethinicity. And looking at our country, it is no surprise we have mixed races and ethnicities. Another time i saw someone being of one race, and not of the stero type given ethnicity, was when i saw a movie about the protagonist being of an Asian race, however; she wasn't educated in that culture, ethnicity,  so she was clueless on how to speak Japanese.

Race refers to physical differences that groups consider socially important, while “ethnicity” refers to shared culture, such as language, ancestry, practices, and beliefs. An ethnicity or an ethnic group is a bunch of people who identify
them selves on shared attributes that separate them from other groups such as a common traditions, ancestry, language, history, religion or social treatment within their residing area. Race usually goes hand in hand with our biology and physical characteristics, such as hair texture or skin color.

With the information gathere about culture,we see how culture itself can help leaders understand their own cultural biases and preferences.  You might ask yourself how is this possible, well , Different cultures have different ideas about what they want from their leaders; as such these findings help our leaders adapt their style to be more effective in different cultural settings.

In conclusion, it is important to preserve and respect cultures that are different from our own. In doing this we enhance our own culture. Cultural differences are a positive aspect of our country that we can learn alot from. Especiall  since our jewel is widely known as a melting pot of cultures. Cultural differences should not be looked upon as something that prevents growth as a society, but rather as something that encourages prosperity.

Culture is something that is very debatable, given the fact it has many ways to take a peek at it and classify it. Having said that, there are three major interpretation of culture. The functionalist perspective states that there are many parts of culture that work together as a system to fulfill society’s needs. Functionalists looks at culture in another way, it says that culture is better defined as a reflection of society’s values. However; Conflict theorists see culture as "inherently unequal" , based upon factors like gender, class, race, and age. And lastly a interactionist is interested in culture as experienced in the daily interactions between people and the symbols that comprise a culture.
Various cultural and sociological occurrences can be explained by these theories; however, there is no one “right” view through which to understand culture.

This week we were introduced to what sociology is as a whole. I learnt that sociology can help us in our daily lives by making sense of things that are considered common sense. Also it helps us to notice the opportunities and obstacles from day to day; sociology helps us to be better citizens and understand why the world works the way it does and how it came to be.
Sociology also help us to understand and accept diversity,  participate in changes , to understand that society differs from time and place. And to realize that this is all known as a sociological perspective.

The sociological point of view underscores that our social foundations impact our mentalities, practices, and life possibilities. The odds of submitting even an individual demonstration, for example, self destruction depend somewhat on the gathering foundations from which we come. Since social science bargains in speculations and not laws, individuals don't generally act and think in the examples sociologists anticipate. For each sociological speculation, there are numerous special cases. Individual experience, sound judgment, and the media are altogether significant wellsprings of information about different parts of society, however they frequently present a restricted or mutilated perspective on these angles.
