One of the first steps to solving a social problem‚ is trying to explain why the problem is occurring. Only then‚ may a solution prevail. If one looks at the idea of rape from a Symbolic Interactionalist perspective‚ we can trace it back to the longstanding idea and norm that women are often seen as “property” of the man who they are with. For example‚ when women take the last name of their husband when married‚ which is still often done in modern society‚ it is almost as if she is losing her own

Cather mainly focuses on Paul’s point of view‚ but the thoughts and feelings of the teachers were very important in understanding Paul. Most people do not see their own faults and habits‚ so the teachers’ point of view was essential. Paul hates his whole life and is extremely depressed about his current situation. Everything that Paul experiences that is beyond his immediate daily life is so heavenly and extraordinarily beautiful

Exhibit 1: Some definitions of a group Conceiving of a group as a dynamic whole should include a definition of group that is based on interdependence of the members (or better‚ the subparts of the group). Kurt Lewin (1951: 146) We mean by a group a number of persons who communicate with one another often over a span of time‚ and who are few enough so that each person is able to communicate with all the others‚ not at second-hand‚ through other people‚ but face-to-face. George Homans (1950: 1)

Small Cars: New Paradigm Shift? Our country has long had an obsession with the automobile. The designs of the sixties and seventies remain fond memories that still dominate our garages and car shows today. Nobody can be anybody without owning a car in today’s culture. It is a status symbol. Our society equates bigger with better. The bigger and more expensive the car you own‚ the higher your status must be. Everywhere you go there are Escalades and Navigators. They are America‚ writ large and thirsty

Symbolic interactionalism helps me understand the social world. Even though symbolic interactionalism is viewed on a micro level‚ I believe the product of the small interactions makes up the whole picture. Everything in life revolves around symbols. Symbolic interactionalism explains that through symbols‚ the way we interpret those symbols‚ will predict our actions amongst others and our views within our self. I view Symbolic interactionalism as the dissection of society. Human actions make up society

In Nacirema‚ Horace Miner uses satire and wordplay to teach us how easy it is to judge cultures that we don’t know much about. Miner is sneakily describing American culture‚ their entire way of life including both material and symbolic elements‚ the whole time77. Miner is trying to teach us that ethnocentrism‚ using your own culture as a standard to evaluate another‚ leads to the belief that other cultures are inferior78. Instead‚ we should be using cultural relativism‚ understanding other cultures
