During the pandemic people had to get used to completely new rules. “Rather than being local matters, these movements are typically national or international in scope, and most focus on quality-of-life issues, such as the natural environment, world peace, or animal rights” (Macionis, p.532) these changes usually happen globally. Everyone had to adapt to following new guidelines like wearing a mask and trying to be safe by maintaining distance. ]]> 2021-12-13 08:18:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1943941570 ov1118425 https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1943984037 Mass society is when people have more income than ever. “Although many people have material plenty, they are spiritually weak and often experience moral uncertainty about how to live” (Macionis, p.539) just because people have money doesn’t necessarily mean they’re happy. They have plenty of money but don't know what to use it on. Even though they are wealthy doesn't mean that they get to enjoy it because emotionally they are not good. Sometimes they can feel lonely and they often don't know how to live.]]> 2021-12-13 08:46:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1943984037 ov1118425 https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1943984125 A good example of collective behavior are concerts. Concerts are large group of people and they all go because they enjoy watching whoever is performing. Big crowds gather around because they usually have the same interests as each other. In this example, the artist Travis Scott had a concert and it ended up being a disaster due to lack of security.  ]]> 2021-12-13 08:46:11 UTC https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1943984125 ov1118425 https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1943997615 Modernity as class society was made by people so they can divide society. They divide society based on their financial status. This cartoon shows how the wealthy are the ones that do the least but are economically better. ]]> 2021-12-13 08:54:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1943997615 ov1118425 https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1945691220 Symbolic interactionism is a theory that focuses on the relationships between individuals and society.When people see something they usually try to associate it with something or to interpret it. People sometimes interpret each others behaviors and that sometimes causes them to have a closer bond. Sometimes the way that society sees you may be a different perspective than the one you have of yourself. ]]> 2021-12-13 22:27:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1945691220 ov1118425 https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1946036364 Postmodernity was when things first started to change. “The term has been used for decades in literary, philosophical, and even architectural circles” (Macionis, p.546). Things started to evolve more and it happened globally. Architecture was one of the main things that changed. ]]> 2021-12-14 03:00:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1946036364 ov1118425 https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1946085872 Modernization is when things start to evolve little by little. Societies start becoming more modern throughout time. “the entire world was poor and that technological change, especially the Industrial Revolution, enhanced human productivity and raised living standards in many nations” (Macionis, p.546) it was a big change. In this video they talk about how changes occur fast and are always happening. ]]> 2021-12-14 03:34:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ov1118425/a34fdg7yqkb80e7i/wish/1946085872
