W9.2 Socialization

 1. Summary

 Socialization refers to the process in which humans learn how to function in a particular society through social interaction. Socialization can be divided into primary socialization that occurs in a society that naturally belongs to the family and secondary socialization that occurs in institutions such as schools. The importance of socialization is explained in the case of children who have grown up through deliberate abuse or children who have grown up in the wild. They seem to lack basic social skills and have mental problems. Socialization has a variety of theoretical understanding. Symbolic interactionism, role theory, reinforcement theory, and internalization theory are representative. These socialization theories are culturally very relative, and can be re-socialized by environments that are perceived as normal or abnormal depending on how they are socialized in a particular society and exposed.

 

2. Interesting point

 It was interesting to think that children who are intentionally abused or raised in the wild cannot go through the general socialization process, so they lack basic social skills. Is there a case where social skills are lacking for genetic reasons even after the general socialization process? Also, the fact that humans naturally learned the socialization process of animals was strange because it was different from my idea that human socialization and animal socialization were completely different areas.

 

3. Questiom

 Does genetic factors affect the socialization process?

Science & Futurism with Isaac 2_extra credit

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRStfFOwcsM The video "What If The Dinosaurs Hadn't Died Off?" by AlternateHistoryHub explores a fascinating hypothetical scenario: what the world might look like if the dinosaurs had survived the catastrophic events that led to their extinction 66 million years ago. The video delves into various aspects of this alternate history, examining the potential impact on mammalian evolution, human development, and the planet's ecosystems. The video begins with a brief overview of the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event, which wiped out the dinosaurs and allowed mammals to become the dominant life forms on Earth. It then explores the possible consequences if this event had never occurred. The narrative is engaging, combining scientific knowledge with imaginative speculation to paint a vivid picture of an alternate Earth. One of the most intriguing points discussed is how the survival of dinosaurs might have affected mammalian evolution. Witho...

Extra credit—Examples of values that have been commodified

Commodification of wood carving In fact, the situation described above is a thing of the past. It's not completely changed, but there are a few exceptions now with the penetration of the monetary economy. These changes, presumably, began in the 1960s, when farmers in Zafimaniri began selling crafts. The artefacts were originally purchased by Catholic priests in France to minimize food shortages during bad harvests. Also, around the same time, the museum affiliated with the Antananarivo University, Madagascar's largest institution of higher learning, began collecting specimens from all over Madagascar, and the "folk arts" inherited from the mountains were also extensively collected. As a result, the exquisite wood carvings of Zafimaniri were first recognized overseas and later by the wealthy class in China. The penetration of monetary economy has brought the following effects to the production of wood carving. 1. Before the beginning of professional commercialization, ...

W5.2- Introduction to Sociology/Religion-LUAN QIANYUE

 1.Summary The sociologist Émile Durkheim described it by saying that it consists of "things beyond the limits of our knowledge". Religion is "a unified system of beliefs and practices associated with sacred things, that is, separated and forbidden, beliefs and practices united into a single moral community called the Church, for all those who adhere to them". Religion can be broadly defined as a system of beliefs, values and practices that provide individuals with a sense of meaning and purpose in their lives. It is a fundamental aspect of human culture and has played an important role in shaping society throughout history. Sociologists are interested in understanding how religion influences social behavior, how it interacts with other social institutions, and how it shapes individual and group identity. 2.Interesting point Religion exists as an organized and integrated set of beliefs, behaviors, and norms centered on basic social needs and values. It typically inc...
