 1. Discussing whether interplanetary trade is possible in the future is an interesting and complex topic. To do this, several scientific, technical, economic, and social aspects must be considered. Among them, I focused on the economic conditions and watched the video. In reality, for interplanetary trade to be economically feasible, the value of space resources must be very high, or there must be essential resources that are not available on Earth. This requires an economic model that can justify the enormous initial investment and continuous operating costs. In order for interplanetary trade to take place, the demand for space resources and the markets that can pay for them are necessary. There is a real problem involved in preparing it. I found it interesting that it is an essential resource that is not available on Earth. Everything that is needed for human survival is on Earth, and I wondered what else it would need.


2. Although it is difficult to clearly define essential resources that are not available on Earth at present, several potential resources can promote space exploration and interplanetary trade in the future. These resources can have a significant impact on Earth's economy, technology, and ecosystem. They may be metals used in high-tech electronics or they may be essential for maintaining life systems, such as water and organic compounds. I think this is a positive idea. It would be positive if Earth's resources run out one day and use them in space, where they can also be used as economic resources


3. We have learned about the factors that reduce the trade reduction of globalization. If you think the opposite way based on this, we can also see the factors that increase it. I think it will be difficult to reduce tariffs like international trade agreements if a deal with space is made. Because it requires the demand of science and technology. Therefore, I think it is most efficient to slowly increase the global trade volume through the spaceization of multinational corporations.

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. As you are expected to do the assigned readings FOR the lectures they are assigned to, you are expected to post your blog and comments BEFORE that lecture. Deadline: Saturday midnight, for main blog posts and Sunday, midnight for comments. Exception: blog posts for the first week can be posted during the first week of class as if they were for the second week. An ideal commentary should be about a third of a page in length (~200 words), divided into three clearly labeled sections in which you: 1) summarize in your own words of materials you read; 2) mention any new, interesting, or unusual items learned; 3) identify at least one q

Why are boys louder than girls? - Kim yeonhee (김연희)

  1) Summary Humans survive by learning the culture of the groups they belong to through social experiences. Throughout their entire lives, individuals undergo a process called socialization, which significantly influences their beliefs and behaviors. This applies not only to children but also to adults. Through socialization, individuals learn and develop beliefs and behaviors considered moral within their affiliated society, shaping their own values accordingly. Primary socialization occurs as children are influenced by their immediate family and friends. If they are exposed to discriminatory views about certain groups, the child may develop discriminatory attitudes towards those groups and believe that such behavior is acceptable. Secondary socialization occurs within larger society. Typically experienced during adolescence or adulthood when individuals encounter new environments and societies, secondary socialization is encountered. For example, in school, unlike at home, there are

  1. summary This article explains what people with a sociology degree can do. First of all, sociology is chosen by people with a variety of personality types, and those who choose this field enjoy it at high rates. After graduation, sociology majors can pursue a variety of roles in business, government, and non-profit organizations, including consumer research, site selection, and product testing. In some cases, you may continue your studies. You can also pursue a more professional career by earning a doctoral degree. This article explores the various possibilities of a sociology degree and provides useful information for students majoring in the discipline. 2.  mention of any new, interesting, or unusual items learned I thought that society itself was a very broad scope, but sociology had a narrow scope, but it was surprising that people who majored in sociology were active in a broader scope than I thought. It was also interesting to find that many sociology majors were satisfied wi
