 - Summary

What is a deviation? Deviation is generally defined as any act that violates cultural norms. These deviations are largely divided into two types. The first is a violation of officially enacted laws such as crimes, and is called a tangible deviation. The second refers to a violation of informal social norms and norms not defined by law, and is called an informal deviation. This article presents various theories on this deviation. The theories related to deviation include labeling theory and conflict theory. It also presents statistics for these crimes. A large number of people does not necessarily mean that there are many criminals, and a small number of people does not mean that there are few criminals.

- Interesting point

Deviation is defined differently depending on the social situation. For example, there are countries where cannabis is legal, and there are countries where it is illegal, such as ours. It was interesting that deviations were defined differently according to such a cultural background. Also, the high incarceration rate in the United States was interesting. It was a different data statistic from the United States I think. The United States shown in the media seemed equal and enjoyable, but the reality was different. I can look at the world with a new perspective.


- Discussion

Deviation is defined differently depending on the culture. It may be a deviation in Korea, but it may not be a deviation in other countries. If we act in another country that is not a deviation from that country, but a deviation from our country, should we see it as a deviation?

    I think that just like respect for culture, deviance should also be respected. I believe that the reason deviance varies from country to country is due to cultural differences. I don't think there is any reason why an act that is considered deviant in our country should not be done in another country. However, I think that engaging in behavior that is considered deviant in our country is also problematic. Since each country has different understandings of the situation, I think that should also be respected.

    Because there are variations between cultures, behavior may be considered a deviation from one culture to another, but not from another. Therefore, behavior that is considered a deviation from one culture does not mean that it is also considered a deviation from another. For example, in Korea, some behaviors may be considered socially inappropriate or a deviation from another, but in other cultures, they may not be seen as a deviation from one another. Therefore, doing something that is considered a deviation from Korea in another country does not necessarily mean that it should be viewed as a deviation. This is a part that requires cross-cultural understanding and respect. If a particular behavior is not considered a deviation from another culture, one should consider its perspective and values when evaluating it. Intercultural understanding and respect means respecting and accepting different values and practices.

    I think that once you go to that country, you have to follow the laws of that country.

 1. Summary Arnett described the goal of socialization as follows. 1. Impulse control and development of conscience. 2. Preparing and performing roles, including professional roles, gender roles, and roles in institutions such as marriage and parental roles. 3. The source of meaning, the cultivation of what is important, valuable, and to live. Socialization is the process of preparing humans to function in social life. Socialization is relative to culture and does not force evaluation judgments. Since socialization is the adoption of culture, it differs from culture to culture and from subculture to culture. It should be noted that socialization is a key sociological process in the development of individuals who can function in human society, but not all aspects of human behavior are learned. Socialization is generally divided into two parts. Primary socialization occurs early in life in childhood and adolescence. Secondary socialization refers to socialization that occurs througho...

Week14.2 （6.7Fri）Introduction to Sociology/Technology, the Internet, and Virtual Worlds （YANGPEIFU）

  1. Summary Technology encompasses the techniques, methods, and processes used to produce goods or services and achieve various objectives. It includes knowledge of these processes and their application in machines and devices. A prominent example is mobile phones, which have transformed communication by eliminating the need for direct telephone lines and altering social norms and behaviors. Social networks, while beneficial for maintaining connections, can also perpetuate objectionable behaviors and gender inequalities. Video gaming, engaged by a significant portion of the population, offers benefits such as enhanced visual attention but poses potential health and behavioral risks for a small subset of users. Technology significantly impacts society, influencing communication, social interactions, and individual behavior. The pros and cons of social networks are self-evident. Although they can facilitate the development of business networks and connections with distant friends an...

Extra point D) Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur 노주

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDb01ggyDfo   When we go to another planet to carry on the exchange of civilizations, not only the exchange of cultures but also the clash of cultures. Alien civilizations across the galaxy capture individuals of some young species that have not yet reached the interstellar stage, cultivate them, modify them to make them live longer, immune to disease, etc., and spread them to any colonizable world. When their home planet began their first interplanetary symbiosis, they formed a bond with each other. Civilization is through the exchange of technology and the clash and collision of cultures. What is heartening is the impact of ascension on the role of the original species in the ecosystem, and given the ascending creatures and humans, utilitarians may favor ascension if the result is the greatest good for the greatest number of people. Inspiring ethics is a complex and multifaceted issue. It requires careful consideration of potential benefits and har...
