 1. summary Socialization is a fundamental sociological concept composed of various elements and a process of preparing humans to function in social life. It is divided into primary socialization that occurs in childhood and adolescence, and secondary society that occurs forever when meeting new groups. Not all socializations are voluntary and not all socializations succeed. There are also social components specifically designed to re-socialize individuals who have not been successfully socialized from the beginning. 2. interesting point It was interesting about "excessive imitation" in which children accurately imitate the role of adults. He said that this phenomenon, which imitates all roles, including the impractical aspects of adults, is likely a human trait that conveys culture from generation to generation. However, this is also in the context of emphasizing children's agreement and ignoring deviations and variations. I think we should respect children's deviati

W9.1 Government 1) Summarize This wiki is about the government. A government is an institution that governs a country or society. The government first appeared about 5,000 years ago, and now the modern government exists as a developed institution, although different countries have different forms. The political system typically includes democracy, republic, and federalism. Democracy is a form of government in which citizens exercise power directly or indirectly and govern a country. And a republic is a form of government in which the position of the state is elected or appointed. Finally, federalism is a form of government in which members are bound by contract with the monarch. Governments are generally separated into powers into legislation, administration, and justice, which have the function of monitoring power. Most governments are run by officials and public officials, and in the case of multi-party governments, there are many parties, and these parties keep each other in chec

  1.  Socialization is a sociological concept composed of several elements. The three goals of socialization are 1. impulse control and the development of conscience 2. Preparing for roles in institutions such as professional roles, gender roles, marriage, and parental roles 3. Finding reasons to live worthwhile 2.  In order to explain the importance of socialization, cases that have not been socialized even as an adult while growing neglect, unhappiness, and intentional abuse are used. Such people are called "wild" people and are considered to be in need of care. How should we educate people who have not been socialized by the negative environment even as adults? I would like to discuss it with a real case. 3. According to the article, elderly people in nursing homes are socialized to accept death. So what about the prisoners in prison? I want to find out what kind of socialization process sinners go through when they go to prison and discuss it with their team members.

1. Summarize Deviance is any act that violates cultural norms. There are two types of deviations. formal and informal deviations.  The theory of deviance is also divided into various categories. There are conflict theory and labeling theory. It also explains the incidence of crime and imprisonment in the United States in connection with the theory of deviation. The U.S. population is the third largest in the world after China and India, but the proportion of the population in prison is the highest in the world. The recidivism rate is also high. Statistics show that crime rates vary by gender and race. In addition, it shows various cases of deviation, such as deviation from college, deviation from games, and deviation from tattoos. 2. Interesting point I thought it was a deviation from my society to simply skip school classes or order late-night snacks at night. However, when I looked at deviations statistically in relation to the actual crime rate in the United States, I found that the

  Why inequality creates disorder? Inequality can lead to inefficient use of resources.   For example, if only a small portion of the population has access to education or capital , then many potentially productive individuals   may be unable to contribute to the economy.   This can result in   lower economic growth , reduced innovation , overall inefficiency   and disorder in society.

  W9.1_Ho Ryuyeong 1. Government generally means the system and people that govern the state. It is usually composed of legislative, administrative, and judicial branches, and the government is not only a mechanism for determining policies but also a place for implementing organizational policies. In many countries, the government has a constitution on governing principles. 2.  The forms of government vary from dictatorship to aristocracy to democracy to republic and federalism. Among them, the content about democracy was the most interesting. Many countries around the world are now choosing democracy. We would like to find out which of these democracies is truly democratic and whether there is a case of wrong politics in the name of democracy. 3.  Which form of government is right? I would like to speak with my colleagues about the most ideal form of government, refuting and sympathizing with the arguments of thinkers, like Plato, who dealt with past forms of government.

1)  Summarization Deviance refers to any behavior or action that goes against societal norms or expectations. Individuals who engage in deviant behavior are often stigmatized and labeled as 'outsiders' or 'criminals.' Deviance can be caused by many factors, including psychological, social, and economic factors. 2) What was interesting/what did you learn? Sociologists study deviance to understand its causes and effects on society. They also examine the ways in which society responds to deviant behavior, including how punishment and rehabilitation are used to address it. Deviance can range from minor acts, such as skipping school, to more serious behaviors like theft or murder. Ultimately, deviance is a social construct and what is considered deviant can vary across cultures and historical periods. 3) Discussion points How does the media influence our perceptions of deviance?

 1. summary A government is a system or group of people that governs a nation, a means of implementing organizational policies, and a mechanism for determining policies. It is generally composed of legislative, executive and judicial branches, and most national governments have a constitution. Political science has long been the goal of creating a type and classification of government, because the type of political system is not clear. And it's hard to identify the form of government, because many political systems are transitioned to government by political parties named after socioeconomic movements. 2. interesting point Plato divided the types of government into Aristocracy, Timocracy, oligarchy, democracy, and Tyranny, which began with aristocracy at the top and tyranny at the bottom and gradually retreated. Among them, aristocratic politics is a form of government that gives power to a small number of elite ruling classes such as hereditary aristocrats and privileged classes.

  1. Summary  What is socialization according to various sociologists it is certain that it is an important and fundamental social concept. But elements that consisting "socialization" can be different scholars by scholars. Jeffrey J. Arnett said that there are 3 goals of socialization.  "1. impulse control and the development of a conscience. 2. role preparation and performance, including occupational roles, gender roles, and roles in institutions such as marriage and parenthood.  3. the cultivation of sources of meaning, or what is important, valued, and to be lived for " In sum, "Socialization" involves adapting to the dominant culture of society to enable humans to function effectively within it.  As human society and it's culture are varied the socialization process can be varied. And we should not unfairly condemn one society's socialization process.  Socialization is important process in society but not every human behavior in society is &qu

 1.summary   Socialization is a basic concept in sociology. It contains many elements, but it is impossible to distinguish which are the most important elements. Socialization is not culturally identical all over the world, but varies according to race, religion, gender, etc. Some of the more classic institutions in socialization are prison psychiatric institutions, etc. Genetic factors and social environmental factors are factors that affect human socialization. Socialization allows individuals to know what society or group expects of themselves and what norms they have.and then gradually adapt the individual to society and observe the social norms of behavior. 2.interesting points   There's an old Chinese saying, "When a man begins, his nature is good."But is that really the case? Through today's understanding of socialization, I think this sentence is not completely true. If a person is born in a pure and kind environment, he may be born kind, but with the social l

 NO.1 What is socialization? According to my understanding after reading, socialization refers to the process of a person learning and adapting to social norms, values, and behavioral patterns in society. This process begins at birth and continues into adulthood, including learning cultural knowledge, forming personality, and adapting to different social roles. Different social and cultural environments can have an impact on this process, and individuals will adapt to the environment through feedback mechanisms, constantly adjusting their behavior and values. NO.2The importance of socialization  Socialization is of great significance for the development of both individuals and society. The following are the important aspects of socialization: Helping individuals adapt to social life: Socialization enables individuals to learn and adapt to social values, norms, and behavioral patterns, thereby better adapting to social life and roles, and helping individuals achieve success and happines

 Socialization is a unified process of individual's cultural education and individual's choice and active adjustment to society. The connotation of socialization can be understood from three aspects: (1) from the perspective of time, that is, individual socialization involves the whole process of life development; (2) From the perspective of content, individual socialization concerns all the cultural heritage that an individual should have as a member of society; (3) From the perspective of relationship, individual socialization focuses on the interaction between individuals and society and the results of individual socialization. Human socialization, as the result of the interaction between individuals and society, is the unity of strong control and initiative. The characteristics of socialization are mandatory. (1) Human beings have no innate behavior pattern, so they will not naturally become social members. ② Individuals often lack initiative and self-awareness in the proce

Summary Socialization is the process by which individuals learn social customs, values, and norms, as well as the social skills necessary to function and excel within them. It involves learning through interactions with family, peers, institutions, and media, both conscious and unconscious. Socialization helps individuals develop self-awareness and their place within society, where they learn to build relationships, make decisions, and navigate social expectations. It is essential for individual functioning and social stability. Interesting Points/Learnings The emergence of social media and technology has had a significant impact on socialization and social interactions. Many people have become accustomed to staying in touch with their family, friends, and colleagues, and even establishing new relationships through social media. The proliferation of technology has also provided individuals with more independent learning pathways, thereby impacting their socialization process. Research

  1. summary   There are various types of contemporary political systems, including democracy, monarchy, totalitarianism, and authoritarianism. These systems can obtain political power through various means, such as competitive elections or hereditary inheritance. The history of government can be traced back to early times, where agriculture and water resource management played an important catalytic role in its development. 2. interesting thing   Political science has always been committed to creating clear types or classifications of political systems. However, in reality, the classification of political systems is not very clear, as there is a significant difference between the surface form of political systems and social and political ambiguity. Even the most liberal democracies limit political competition to some extent, while the most authoritarian security dictatorships strive to narrow the scope of government to organize a broad support base. For example, in some countries, the

1.Summary Socialization is a fundamental sociological concept composed of multiple elements. It should be further emphasized that socialization is a process that prepares humans to function in social life and is culturally relative. And other classes, such as other cultures, races, and genders, should not be forced to judge and should not be so. Also, although it is an important sociological process in the development of individuals who can function in human society, not all aspects of human behavior are learned, so it should be noted. Socialization is divided into primary and secondary. Primary socialization occurs in childhood and adolescence, and secondary socialization refers to lifelong socialization when meeting new groups that need additional socialization. Some scholars say that only one of these occurs, but most social scientists claim that both develop. A common way to explain the importance of socialization is to use the few unfortunate cases that have not been socialized by

 1.Summarize  It is socialization that prepares humans to function in social life. Primary socialization and secondary socialization exist. We can experience Primary socialization in family and with friends. It's a spontaneous, all personal relationship. It can be said to be the stage of the basic part of socialization. Schools, workplace mass media, etc. belong to secondary socialization, and these institutions are artificial institutions with purpose. It goes through a higher level of socialization than professional and primary socialization institutions. 2. My thought  I think the primary process of socialization is very important among the processes of socialization. As a child, we learn many things by staying with family and friends. If attachment with parents in childhood is not well formed, there are cases where they have problems in human relationships as an adult. In addition, children are at an age where critical thinking is not yet possible, so they are greatly influence

 1. Summarize  The development of agriculture led to the development of the country. You have systems of government like despotism, aristocracy, democracy, republicanism, federalism. The state exists in three separate forms of power in which power is divided. They keep each other in check and distribute power appropriately. Now, many democracies are turning into authoritarian forms of power.   2. My thought, opinion  I think a balanced distribution of power is important.  The legislature, administration, and judiciary check each other and ensure that state power is not concentrated in one place. Currently, the Republic of Korea is a multi-party system and is adopting a presidential system. It is divided into the ruling party and the opposition party, and the party to which the president belongs is the ruling party. In many cases, the ruling party is stronger.  Among the countries that adopt a bicameral system, Japan has a prime minister as the head of state administration. 3. Question

It is the result of the interaction between human and society. Through socialization, individuals learn the standards, norms, values and desired behaviors in society.

Week 9.1 LIU ZIMENG 유자맹 1) Summarize  The main topics are the definition and history of government, the classification and forms of government. More important is the basic political system, especially democracy. It is divided into direct democracy and indirect democracy. The main types of government are democracy, constitutional government, autocracy, dictatorship, authoritarianism, and totalitarianism. They vary according to the doctrines of each school. In the context of mainland China, polity is often equated with the form of regime organization [1], which is explained as follows according to Marxist theory: The polity includes the way power is arranged vertically in a state, which is also called the form of state structure; it also includes the relationship between various state organs, which is usually called the form of regime organization. The structural form of the state is the relationship of power between the local and central levels of a state, and between the whole and th

 1. summary  Socialization is the process of preparing humans to function in social life. Socialization is relative. Socialization varies by race, class, gender, sexuality, and religious social position.  Socialization can be divided into two periods. There is primary socialization, which occurs during childhood and adolescence, and secondary socialization, which occurs throughout life as we meet new groups that require additional socialization. Primary socialization is primarily the development of basic, core identity elements, while secondary socialization is more specific to new group membership and roles. Socialization is also divided into broad socialization and negotiated socialization. Broad socialization is socialization that promotes independence, individualism, and self-expression. It is called broad socialization because it has the potential to produce broad consequences. It is called narrow socialization because it promotes obedience and conformity and does not have a wide

1. Summary - Government means an organized group that controls the country. Major modern political systems include democracy, monarchy, totalitarianism, and authoritarianism. Methods of gaining political power from the government include election competition and hereditary succession. This article also explains the history of government. In the early government, agriculture and water resource management played a role as a catalyst for the government's development. The tribal chiefs were reportedly elected by various ceremonies and tests of power. From the end of the 17th century, the form of a republic spread to the government, and after the fall of the Berlin Wall, liberal democracy expanded further. In the 19th and 20th centuries, the size and size of the government increased significantly, and the development of corporate regulations and welfare states increased. 2. New point -  I learned a new article about political science. In political science, it is said that the type of po

 1. summary  What is a government? There are many different concepts of government. It can refer to the entire governing body of a country, including the executive, legislative, and judicial branches. It can also refer to just the executive branch of a political organization, i.e., the administration. In times when the functions of the state were not divided, all governing bodies could be considered a government.  The form of government distinguishes the type of state. It depends on who holds the sovereignty and how many people it is concentrated in. Next, we can distinguish between direct and indirect democracy. Direct democracy has the advantage that everyone is heard and can directly participate in politics. However, this is not very feasible in a modern state system with a large territory and a large number of people.  We can also divide governments according to the form of separation of powers. Most countries try to keep the judiciary separate from the legislative and executive br

  Laws are sand, customs are rock. Laws can be evaded and punishment escapes, but an openly transgressed custom brings sure punishment.—Mark Twain. Why? What did Twain mean by that? In this quote, Mark Twain is emphasizing the power of customs and traditions in a society. Because He thinks that   customary behavior is deeply rooted in a society and forms the foundation of its social norms,   so violating them would lead to social disapproval and possibly exclusion from the group.   Because In conclusion, he thoughts customs are more enduring and fundamental than laws.

  1.summary  Elements of socialization -goals Socialization is what humans learn to live their lives, and socialization between society and groups appears in various ways. This does not mean that all human behavior is the result of socialization. -primary and secondary socialization The process of learning the cultural norms of society that members of society belong to according to birth is called primary socialization. Compared to this, secondary socialization is the process of socializing by learning the values and attitudes of the group as an individual belongs to a specific vocational group. -broad and narrow socialization Arnett proposed a distinction between broad and narrow socialization, where broad promotes independence and self-expression, while narrow promotes obedience and conformity. -total institution Socialization is not always valid or successful, and there are installations like prisms and mental health facilities designed to socialize.
