Summary


Hong Kong's political interference with Hong Kong by the Chinese Communist Party intensified, and as mainlanders rushed to Hong Kong en masse, jobs were lost and real estate prices targeting ordinary people rose, and Hong Kong people's feelings toward the mainland began to deteriorate. In particular, anti-mainland sentiment among the working class and young people who think they have suffered direct damage is getting worse. Some of Hong Kong's writers and journalists were missing, who were taken by the Ministry of Public Security of the People's Republic of China on a trip to the Chinese continent. Rumors spread that the Chinese Communist Party was behind the arrest of them on the mainland, prompting protests demanding their release. Hong Kong people take this seriously because they did not detain or detain the Chinese Communist Party in Hong Kong in the past for complying with the one-state system, but this has spread anxiety that the Chinese Communist Party might be trying to gag the criticism of the Communist Party as it did in the continent. Due to the narrow nature of Hong Kong, coming is inevitable in some way, so it is possible to wait for the mainland to enter the Chinese continent, not the Hong Kong me, who has a lot of eyes to see, and then sneak it from the border. In fact, even if it is a one-state two-state system, what China calls the continuation of a one-state two-state system is a prerequisite for Hong Kong's sovereignty as a special administrative zone and a separate tariff zone, and it is possible to respond strongly because it does not presuppose Hong Kong's independence. That's why China says the one-state system has succeeded, because sovereignty over Hong Kong continues to be tightly controlled. 

Interesting


Hong Kong has nothing to do with China. China's communization and Hong Kong's democratization always create conflict. But I didn't know it would be this serious. The situation in Hong Kong is difficult because of China. 

Discussion
What would be the difference between China and Hong Kong? What is the reason for Hong Kong's independence beyond just politics? What priority should Hong Kong have for independence from China?

W9. Introduction to Sociology / Deviance

Sum mary   Deviation refers to the act of violating cultural norms. Violating the law is usually called an official deviation, and the act of violating informal social norms is called an informal deviation. Deviation can vary considerably depending on culture. Deviations defined by sociologists have many forms. Merton suggested a type of deviant behavior. According to him, the type of deviation is presented based on two criteria. The first condition is the adherence to personal motivation or cultural goals. The second condition is the individual's belief in how to achieve the goal. By selecting these conditions as Yes or No, there are four types and one additional type. The four types appear to be suitability, innovation, realism, and retro. One additional type is "rebellion," which refers to an individual rejecting both cultural goals and means of achievement, replacing or creating new means and goals. Structural functionalism argues that deviant behavior plays an impo

Dramaturgy (Sociology)

1. Summary -       Dramaturgy is a sociological perspective commonly used in micro-social explanations of social interactions in everyday life. In drama sociology, it is argued that the elements of human interaction depend on time, place and courtesy. The dramatic view is one of several sociological paradigms separate from other sociological theories because it analyzes context rather than examining the causes of human behavior. In the dramatic model, social interaction is analyzed in such a way that people live their lives like actors acting on stage. There are also seven important factors identified by Goffman regarding performance. The steps represent three areas (front, back, outside) where you can find multiple individuals with different roles and information. Front stage is that part of the individual’s performance which regularly functions in a general and fixed fashion. The backstage allows the performer to relax, put his front down and escape the character without speaking
