In my perspective I do think that society has the power to change us. I think that society has the power to change our attitudes, behaviors, and even beliefs. I have seen how people from the old generation have changed and adapt to now. People from the Mestizo and Maya and other cultures have changed their traditions and not only that but also their clothing. There are also people that do not want to change however they end up doing it without even realizing it. All of us have changed in one way or the other it may not be so obvious but we have changed, society has made us change, it does has a great power on us.

My perspective towards this is that it is true. In our daily lives we can see how this model of the social institutions are important and that it is true that this helps to maintain equilibrium in society. We can see how the people with no education are struggling to get a job there are many persons that because of this they become to do crime like stealing and even worst killing also to have money for their survival. This is why I think that Durkheim’s perspective is true because we can all see it on our daily live.

In my opinion, I think that they these two cultures were classified are correctly. The new and old generation are totally different. All the things from back then have changed and the younger people see it as something good but the older ones think the opposite. All or majority of the young generation have a lot of things in common and as I said before the adults perspective towards our practices and norms are negative, well most of the adults. I think it was a good idea to classify all of us differently when it comes to this, because all of us would not fit in correctly we are all different in one way or the other especially when comparing us the teen with the adults.

In my opinion I think that Roles play a very important part in the social interaction topic as it helps us individuals/students to learn to interact in social situations. I think that roles can change our personalities as we can mature more and make better decisions in our future for a status we will get in the future for example as a manger or employee, some of us still don’t hold that status as yet so with this topic we can practice to manage our roles so we don’t go through any problem for future statuses. 

With this topic I have learned about what culture is,because before when someone use to tell me the word “culture” I thought about ethnicity the mestizos mayas and those ones. Now I known what the real meaning and what culture is about, and I can know correct the persons who use culture as ethnicity and not only that but also tell them more about Culture. Something else that I realize about culture is that it guides us for our future, all the components from our ancestors left us also help us. We can also learn to communicate and understand others with the use of this topic because we now know that we can be different in somethings with others.
