 1. Summary

Social inequality occurs when resources are unevenly distributed, which forms a distinct pattern of inequality according to socially defined categories. This inequality can be attributed not only to a lack of equality in outcomes, but also to a lack of equality in access to opportunities. As society becomes more complex, social inequality tends to increase as the gap between the poorest and wealthiest members widens, and inequality also occurs at the global level due to various factors such as ability, gender, age, and health.


2. Mention of any new, interesting

It was interesting to learn more about the status learned in high school social and cultural classes, as well as the status of attribution and achievement, and the fact that research on social status and inequality contributed to understanding complex social factors beyond simple economic indicators.


3. Discussion

What are some policy measures to analyze the impact of economic development on social mobility in relation to global inequality and promote it?

    Economic development improves social mobility by providing more jobs and educational opportunities. To facilitate this, the government should ensure a fair education for all and expand vocational training programs. It is also important to promote regional development by distributing economic opportunities in a balanced way across regions to reduce income inequality. These policies can increase individuals' opportunities to move to better economic positions.

 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...

Introduction to the blog

This blog is a digital forum where students from Spring 2024 class in Invitation to Sociology at the Hanyang University in Korea will discuss their weekly readings and activities. Each week you are expected to post a blog post on at least 3 pages worth of the readings assigned for next week on our blog (here)  and make a comment on another student's post.

W12.1 Blog for reading materials

1.Summary Goffman's dramaturgical theory has been applied to various social phenomena, including social movements, online identity construction, and theatrical performances. 2.Discussion The pursuit of essence is human beings' superficial understanding of things, and the pursuit of differences is human beings' deep understanding of things. Essence can be applied and labeled. It is a superficial understanding of things and is the process of people's understanding of the world. Lazy means. It is believed that as long as you master the essence of things, you have mastered everything about them, that is, you can transform cognition into action. Therefore, I believe that constructing essence is the first step to understand things, and constructing differences is the most important thing to understand things. People should construct their understanding of differences by constructing essence. Whether it is playing games, reading novels, getting drunk, or skydiving, all kinds o...
