While standard sociology textbooks often provide only brief overviews of the field of sociology, the anthology Society, Institutions, and Individuals: An Introduction to the Sociological Imagination allows professors and students alike to spend more time addressing institutional and systemic inequalities, most notably issues of race, class, and gender. The book also examines globalization and its sociological effects. After an introduction to the nature of sociology, the sections of the book address the ways in which sociologists view the world, the ways culture impacts perspective, persistent social inequalities, and the sociology of development and globalization. The final section presents suggestions and solutions that can be used in dealing with systemic inequality. In this second edition, a new section on research methods highlights how sociologists produce knowledge.The text exposes students to both classic sociological works, and the freshest contemporary research on topics ranging from media to education to the prison industrial complex through peer-reviewed research articles by notable scholars in the field.Society, Institutions, and Individuals is an ideal supplemental reader for introductory sociology courses, as well as classes focusing on social problems and inequality. It can also be used as a stand-alone textbook.

Society Kills Men: Feminism Loses When Half Are Held Back

Society Kills Men: Feminism Loses When Half Are Held Back

Kenneth T. Jolivet

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
2019
nidottu
'Feminism Has Gone Too Far.' It's Literally Killing Men, Physically, Mentally and Spiritually "Death by a thousand cuts," known as Lingchi, was a form of execution implemented by the Imperial Chinese to execute or torture its 'criminals.' Ken's book postulates that modern society is todays 'Lingchi' because when considered comprehensively over time, events and context, it marshals a crushing burden that only men must face, making them today's torturees. Undeniably, some cuts are obvious, but more worryingly, the majority are ordinarily insidious and it is often the "straw that breaks the camel's back." Make no mistake, when taken as a whole, they're crushingly affective. In the book, Ken descriptively breaks many of them down for you and takes you on a well documented journey that does well to explain and show the reader how feminists have hijacked nearly every facet of life that's important to boys and men.Did You Know: - That Men die from suicide, four to 16.5 times the rate women do- That boys and men are losing their self-esteem and purpose in life- That men are turning away from marriage- That Feminism and gynocentrism have a lot to answer for- That it's a Woman's World, yet women are more unhappy then they've ever been- That our education system discriminates against males at every level- That domestic abuse and domestic violence aren't gender specific- That double standards exist and do more harm than good to both sexes- That men and fathers have little worth in society and are considered disposableFind Out What is Happening to Males today and Why

Society in the Digital Age

Society in the Digital Age

William Housley

SAGE Publications Ltd
2021
sidottu
In Digital Society: An Interactionist Perspective, William Housley explores the ways interactionist thinking contributes to our understanding of current trends and topics within digital sociology. Drawing on a range of aligned approaches, concepts and empirical studies, he explores how notions of self and presentation, action and agency, practical reason and interaction are of fundamental importance to our understanding of some of the emerging contours of digital society; inclusive of big data, social media, the social life of methods, algorithmic culture, ‘artificial intelligence’ and the pivot to voice. In doing so, Housley aims to demonstrate the enduring relevance of work associated with Goffman, Garfinkel and Sacks in understanding everyday digital social life. The book provides a range of insights into how sociology and social science continues to draw upon interactionism and aligned traditions such as ethnomethodology in making sense of the Interaction Order 2.0 and beyond.

Society in Focus: An Introduction to Sociology, Ninth Edition, emphasizes how society and social forces affect everything from globalization and international policies to day-to-day activities in our personal lives. In this edition, the authors go beyond the mere questioning of issues to take a closer look at the social world in which we live. They provide an integrated approach that uses sociological thinking to help students analyze and understand key concepts. To focus increased attention on sociological thinking and research methods, they have chosen four key themes: media and technology, globalization, cultural diversity, and trends for the future. Because sociology is about all of us and our daily lives, it is an eminently practical and useful discipline for understanding our social world. This Ninth Edition Includes: • specific student outcomes for each chapter as well as assessment items linked to those outcomes • new chapter-opening vignettes that give real-life examples illustrating important terms, concepts, and theories included in that chapter • updated data, statistics, maps, charts, boxes, and tables citing the latest research available • examples of the powerful impact of media and technology on society, especially the role social media play in helping to shape and define our daily social lives • new photos and cartoons accompanied by critical-thinking questions that reinforce and illustrate important sociological terms, concepts, and theories
