Week 13-2_[what other gendered cultural symbols can we think of?]

I think this is an example of gender discrimination. Gender discrimination refers to the practice of one sex dealing with another sex differently. In most societies, this practice appears as discrimination in favor of men over women. In a society characterized by patriarchal relationships, women are systematically and routinely discriminated against in all areas of social life, ie in areas of private and public social activities. Thus gender discrimination is institutionalized, and in this sense it can be something similar to racism. I also think that producing something that is symbolized by gender is also a result of the society. These ideologies and practices eventually acquire irrational justification and are subconsciously prescripted. The current sexism should of course disappear, but I think what is more important is implicit sexism like these cases. It is because it is deeply embedded in people's minds and done unconsciously. I think implicit sexism should be eliminated.

Week 13-2_[why men and women chose different fields to study?]

First of all, I think it is because there are jobs that are unconsciously fixed according to gender so far. For example, men are preferred over women and men are more likely to be supported in the field of power and engineering. On the other hand, more women choose nursing or beauty care than men. I think environmental factors play a role in this, but I think this happens because there are usually advantages and disadvantages depending on gender. But I think the boundary is getting blurred over time, and I think this is normal.

Week 13-2_[Introduction to Sociology/Race and Ethnicity]

1. Summary This article introduces race/ethnicity. Race is a group of humans considered to be in some way distinct from other humans on the basis of actual or imagined physical differences. Racial classification is based on the biological classification of humans by morphological characteristics such as skin color or facial characteristics. Individuals are generally categorized externally into ethnic groups rather than choosing where they belong as part of their own identity. Concepts about race, as well as certain ethnic groups, are often controversial because of its influence on social identity and how such identity affects someone's position in the social hierarchy.Nationality, not race-related, refers to the social characteristics shared by humans. Unlike race, ethnicity is usually not externally allocated by other individuals. The term ethnicity focuses more on the group's connection to the shared past and culture. Examples of racial groups in the United States are Hisp...

Week 13-1_[is korea becoming multiethnic? why?]

I think so. First of all, the number of multicultural families in Korea itself is increasing. Multicultural families are international marriage families living in Korea, and one of their parents is a Korean-made family. Korean society began to become a multicultural society in the mid- to late 1990s. This phenomenon is also caused by the active movement of the population between countries in line with globalization, but in Korea, international marriages are mainly conducted mainly by unmarried men in rural areas who have missed their marriageable age (Lee Hyun-joo, 2013). The increase in female marriage immigrants in our country has spread through three stages. Statistics Korea's 2010 census showed that there were 386,977 multicultural families, and the "feminization of migration" in Asia also affected Korean society, with most multicultural families comprising marriages between Korean men and foreign women.

Week 13-1_[how many foreigners live in korea? where are they from?]

Currently, the number of foreigners registered in the Foreign Register to stay in the country for more than three months is 1,246,626, it said. About 400,000 people live in Gyeonggi Province, 280,000 live in Seoul and 70,000 live in South Gyeongsang Province. They have acquired Korean nationality and live in Korea in various ways, including overseas Koreans, door-to-door employment, study abroad, and marriage immigrants.

Week 13-1_[what races do you think exist?]

Race is a group that shares all the physical genetic characteristics of the human race when it is biologically distinguished. Human beings can be integrated into one species called homosapiens, but they vary in nature. Race represents a mutation in the species and is a subspecies of animals. It has long been known that human variation is abundant and linked with land, much or less. The ancient Chinese distinguished themselves from other groups by calling it "East-West Yong Nammanbukjeok." The murals of the royal tomb of Egypt are painted by distinguishing races according to the color of their skin. I disagree because although the tendency to divide races by skin color is most common, it can lead to the possibility of discrimination.

Week 13-1_[Introduction to Sociology/Gender]

1. Summary This article describes gender. We have explained gender and biological differences, gender discrimination and gender difference theory in order, and we will summarize the gender difference theory among them. Sociologists and other social scientists generally think that many differences between genders are due to socialization. As discussed in the chapter on socialization, socialization is the process of conveying norms, values, beliefs and actions to future group members. In gender socialization, the groups that people participate in are gender categories,"citizen women and men" and" transgender". Thus, sex socialization is the process of educating and teaching potential male, female, and intersex children about the norms, behaviors, values and beliefs of group members.   2. Interesting The process of changing the perception of sex as the times changed was interesting.   3. Discussion What do you think about gender, a view developed i...

Make up classes_[Introduction to Sociology/Technology, the Internet, and Virtual Worlds]

1. Summary This article is technology, Internet and virtual worlds to introduce an article. First of all technology is the production of goods or services or scientific research and technology, a collection of methods or processes used to achieve the same goal. The technology, processes, such as knowledge can be integrated into the plant, machinery, computers, devices and can, and detailed knowledge of the operation of these things.It can be operated by private without.

Week 12-2_[is rising inequality something to be worried about?]

I think so. Inequality is a state in which discrimination exists and is unevenness. The higher the inequality index, the more difficult the state is to maintain, and from a personal standpoint, discrimination can never have a beneficial effect. Also, I think the state exists to eliminate inequality and discrimination.

Week 12-2_[some theorists argue that the growing inequality in some countries could lead to emergence of charismatic leaders and revolutions. do you think this could happen?]

I think it may happen in other countries, but it will not happen in our country. The reason for this is that, however unfair things may have happened, there have been several cases in which leaders who have shown up in Korea eventually chose dictatorship and oppression. Also, it is a country with a very strong sense of citizenship, so I think people will tend to stand up before the leader gets up. This will eventually bring a large number of people to their feet and it has enough power to change the environment. Therefore, in Korea, at least because of past events, the people will reject it, and I think that without such a leader, things can be solved with one national character.

Week 12-2_[is such fight visible in your country?]

The United States is an example. The United States and South Korea have signed a free trade agreement, which is called fta after the English initials. The fta is an agreement that liberalizes the movement of goods or services to promote mutual trade between certain countries, and is a preferential trade agreement signed between the two countries or regions to realize trade liberalization by easing or eliminating all trade barriers between countries. However, free trade agreements have usually been centered around neighboring countries or certain areas, such as the European Union and the North American Free Trade Agreement, so they are often called regional trade agreements. The system seemed to have given both the U.S. and South Korea only good points, but it was not. In the agricultural and livestock sectors, there is a disadvantage that there is also a losing market. Due to the lack of price competitiveness compared to cheap agricultural and livestock products in the U.S., there wa...

Week 11-2_[how do those people feel? why do they act the way they do? what can we learn from answering those questions?]

I think people's feelings will be different for each individual. This is because each person has a different situation and different environment and thoughts. They also think they did their own thing because they were in their own situation. A man without a house in Paris may have his own story and reason. So there is no guarantee that he will live outside, and that his mood will always be bad. Because we haven't lived his life for him. Sometimes good things can happen, or unlike our general idea, you may have chosen the life you want. Through this question, one can see that one's life cannot be all the same, and that each individual behaves with different thoughts.

Week 11-2_[what is more important: the actions of individuals or the environment that influences them?]

I think individuals are more important than the environment. Of course, the environment will also have a great impact on individuals, but I think individual power is more powerful. For example, if we look at the process of democratization in Korea, the environment was really at its worst due to the dictatorship and oppression of the nation, but the individual people thought and joined forces to change the country and the background. As I tend to think that there is nothing I can't do if my personal efforts are combined, I think that individual actions are more important.

Week 11-2_[Dramaturgy (sociology)]

1. summary This article is about dramatic phenomenon.

Week 11-1_[Symbolic interactionism]

1. Summary This article describes the symbolic interaction. Symbolic interaction is a sociological theory that develops from practical considerations and implies people's use of certain dialects, creating images and creating general meanings for inference and communication with others. In other words, it is a framework of reference to better understand how individuals interact with each other to create a symbolic world, and in return how these worlds shape individual behavior. Looking at the table of contents, the history, assumption of symbolic interaction.It proceeds in the order of premise and research methodology, central thought, and criticism. The history of symbolic interaction theory begins with George Herbert Mead. Mead argued that people's egos are social products, but these themselves are also purpose-conscious and creative, and believed that any real test of any theory is "useful for solving complex social problems." According to the Handbook of Sym...

Week 10-2_[can we think of other examples of role strain or conflict, particularly in the korean context?]

If we look at the conflicts that our country usually has, it seems to be politically inclined. As for the conflict between liberals and conservatives, most people in Korea disagree and show signs of conflict. Therefore, even if it is a first-time situation or a good relationship, it does not want to talk about politics well. According to a survey conducted by the National Statistical Office, the conflict between progressive and conservative groups was the biggest among the conflicts among major groups in our society, and it was very high at 91.8%. In this regard, it can be judged that conflicts based on political tendencies are significant. What is the background of such frequent political conflicts in Korean society? It seems to have been formed according to the Korean political circle in Korea. The concept of Korea's progress and wealth itself is a little bit unusual, but in Korea, this phenomenon seems to be repeated more due to the characteristic that it revolves around peopl...

Week 10-2_[most important values in korea are 1] feeling of responsibility(like in japan), hard work(less then in china, bout much more than in japan) and thrift (korea leads the world here). why?]

Image
              In order to understand these values, we need to learn about the background and history of Korea. Korea is a country that has had Confucian ideas all along, and these customs mostly stem from Confucian ideas. Confucian ideas are the teachings of Confucius in China, based on Yin and the Three Views of Libraries. Confucian culture was introduced during the Three Kingdoms Period and established as the ideology of running the country. The government established schools to educate students abroad, and from the time of the two Koreas, it selected those who were well versed in Confucian ethics and gave them government posts. By the time the past system was established, this was more pronounced. Confucianism places importance on moral virtues such as humanity, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and God in real life. It is the basic position of Confucianism that everyone's character is good. The Mencius, in particular, made it more clear th...
