1.Summary
This article explains various theories about sociology.
Structure-functionalization describes our society as a collective means. It
does not account for social changes, and it has the limits that society does
not need human beings.
Conflict theory says we compete with limited resources. It has the limits of overlooking the safety of society. Symbolic interactionism is the theory of understanding human relationships by using communication. It uses both qualitative methods and quantitative methods. There is a limit it can not prophesy. Role theory is a theory that describes the role of a human being in a group. It can link personal behavior and social structure. However, it can not explain the social deviation unless it does not correspond to pre-specified role and role expectations are not explained. The extension of the role theory is the impression management. Social constructionism is a study of how social reality is understood and developed by society members. Feminism attempts to protect women's rights. Feminism includes Marxist feminism, socialist feminism, and radical feminism. The integration theory combines the theory of micro and macro levels. It is good to explain the social phenomenon.

2.What I learned/What I was interesting
I was surprised that there are many theories about sociology. I knew conflict theory and symbolic interactionism originally. But the rest of the theories were first noticed. I was excited to learn new theories. The most impressive theory is Role Theory. It was interesting to understand social phenomena through the role of individuals in the group. I want to learn more about the other theories except the contents of the writing. I am glad to know a little more about sociology.
3. Discussion point
Feminists are getting more and more popular in Korea these days. They strive to protect the human rights of women. However, some people criticize feminist because they think feminist promote male dislike and encourage public opinion undesirably. I think feminists are striving for a world where women can live well. In other words, I think feminists are good. I wonder how other friends think about feminists. I would like to discuss it with my friends.

The reason for the Feminist was originally for gender equality. However, I think that it is necessary to have a critical view, not a blind acceptance, because the extreme deterioration of the feminist is highly likely to cause reverse discrimination.
ReplyDeleteFeminism assert female’s right. In Korea, some aggressive feminist’s rude or no-manner behavior became hot issues. However, with wide view, Feminist try to fix social problem with their ideology. For this reason, I think feminism (and feminist) is good for gender equality.
