Social Stratification

Social stratification referes to the hierarchy arrangement based on various factors such as wealth , education, occupation and Social status. This system creates distinctions within society leading to unequal access to resources and opportunities. People in higher classes typically enjoy better living conditions, health care and education while those in lower classes Face significant challenges. This division can maintain cycles of poverty and limit social mobility making it dificult for individuals to improve their circumstances.

In my opinión, Social stratification is a significant issue that affects many aspects of our lives. As a student I see how it influences education opportunities and career paths since student from lower class often lack access to quality education and resources which can hinder their academic performance and their future prospects. Its essential for us as a society to address these inequalities and create system that promote equal opportunities for all regardless of their background. By doing so we can give almost everyone a chance to succeed.

Culture shock Entry #2

Culture shock is the feeling of confusion or anxiety that people experience when they move to a new country or environment that is very different from what they are used to. It can happen when someone encounters new customs, language, food or social norms that they are not familiar with. This feeling can make it hard to adjust and can lead to homesickness or frustration. Over time people learn to adapt and appreciate the new culture, but can be a tough experience.

I think culture shock is a normal part of traveling or moving to a new place. It can be really Overwhelming at first but it can help us to grow and learn about different ways of life. I believe that facing these challenges makes us more open minded and understanding of others. Even though it can be hard, embracing the differences can lead to amazing experiences and friendships.

Race Entry #4

Race is often understood as a social construct that categorizes people based on physical characteristics, such as skin color, facial features, and hair type. While these traits can sometimes reflect geographic ancestry the concept of race has no biological basis and varies across cultures and societies. Historically race has been used to create hierarchies and justify inequalities leading to discrimination and Social division. Understanding race requires recognizing its complexity and the impact it has on individuals and communities as well as acknowledging the shared humanity that surpass these unreasonable classifications.

I believe that race should not define who we are or how we interact with each other. While it's important to acknowledge our differences, we should focus on what unites us as human beings. Everyone deserves respect and equal opportunities regardless of their race. By promoting understanding and emphathy we can create a more inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and accepted.

Functionalism perspective

This perspective was introduced by Emile Durkheim and he was also named as the father of functionalism. Also he was the one that view our society as a complex system which was made up of various interconnected parts that work together to maintain the social order and stability. According to him these social institutions and structures serve as important functions that contribute to the regulation and harmony of society as a whole. He believed that every aspect of society has a specific purpose that contributes to the overall functioning and well being of the social organisim.

Emile Durkheim in my perspective what he wanted for us to understand is that like in social institutions we have family since we need them to provide us with stability and also we need to have norms for us to guide us to know what is acceptable and appropiate in our actions and behaviour. Also it gives us a good way to understand social groups and how they help keep our society together and in order. Since it makes us understand how they work together to meet the needs of our society as a whole to have a better equilibruiml since we all need this to have harmony in our society.

Authoritarianism

Authoritarianism is a political system where a single leader or a small group holds significant power, often limiting individual freedoms and political opposition. In authoritarian regimes the government controls many aspects of life, including the media, education, and public expression. Citizens typically have little to no say in how they are governed, and if they decide to protest they could often met with harsh consequences. This system can be seen in various forms around the world, where leaders prioritize their authority over democratic principles.

In my opinion, authoritarianism can be harmful because it restrain personal freedoms and can lead to abuse of power. When people can't express their thoughts or challenge their leaders, it creates an environment of fear and oppression. I believe that everyone deserves a voice in their government, and when that is taken away, it can prevent a society from progressing and addressing the needs of its people. Overall, promoting democracy and individual rights is essential for a fair and just society.
