Important hi

Hi Alexandra. Thank you so much for this. I am a very experienced teacher, but relatively new to sociology, and you are one of the best out there.....

Thank you for this great mind map. Suggestion: - Psychology, and the psychology of the group - sociology - , all stand on its one primal root, which is the living being in the natural system programmed to live aka survive and grow**. Every matter looked at psychologically or sociologically - matters of success sought or investigated or failure dealt with or investigated - unfolds and finds clarity with that primal key. In general, it's very much the sciences only come into resultful use when all taken into account complementary. Neuroscience for example tells the physical results of every felt - psychic - reality. And neuroscience is very mathematical, methodic in its layout. So in order to investigate individual situations, behaviors - psychology - and the individual vs group dynamics and vice versa - sociology - you may always start with the primal 'key' of lifeforms, s.a.**, the natural 'programming', which is being laid out in the sciences already, and next work your way into the particular case. // In lack of better words. Otherwise, anybody who feels like it please ask us

Dawg so fricking cool marcist is the way

this is amazing thank u sm for creating this <3

Marx never said this

Thank you.

What? People act deviant because that is what society expects????? So, people aren't responsible for their actions and other people make them do these things?

Capitalistic wealth isn't unequal. Everyone has a chance to earn with either a job or a business or both. Both my parents were self employed in San Francisco and raised several kids and put us all through private schools. They worked their butts off seven days a week and had hobbies and fun, all at the same time. Get off your lazy butts and work and stop complaining and stop expecting society to give you everything. Go get it yourself.

At 5:14, you said in the second paragraph that only in the US had the black power and civil rights. Wrong. All of those were happening in the US. I remember. I was there.

Here it is in a nutshell: People commit crime because they think they can get away with it and keep what they are trying to get. Also, they are so firm in their beliefs, and they believe that society supports them, that they are willing to uphold their beliefs. A lot of people think that their god is directing them to perform these acts. See Dan White and why he assassinated San Francisco Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk in 1978. He said his god had directed him to stop people who believed in gay rights!!!!!

Can you explain why rape and domestic violence are termed 'crimes of passion'? They are anything but passionate.

Very informative! Great presentation! Thank you. ❤

very helpful video on a topic so hard to find specific resources for

Can I get a pdf of dz

You haven't really referred back to the item throughout your essay would that cap the marks you could receive

Hi I'm a student from the Philippines if you wouldn't mind I need your ppt to present it in class can I have it 🙏

This hasn’t aged well.

That Paul Willis section is really good and is something I experienced myself in secondary school. Another fantastic thinker on this subject is Ivan Illich and his book Deschooling Society.

please suggest some book to read more your lecture is superb

Thank you!

Everyone knows right from wrong. Don't make sociological excuses when chooses the wrong path.

wop

Brilliant thanks

Haven't still not yet understand the difference between a social problem a'd a sociological problem, can anyone give an idea?

ƤＲＯ𝓂Ｏ𝕤ᗰ 😜

lifesaver!!

Nice 👍 too see where the American dollars of tax payers are going.....

Thank you so much !! Really helpful 😊

You had me up until Marxism

Great!

Not me watching this 6 years later for an essay due in two days 🤣🤣

Excellent videos

Hi lady.... It is good effort but...... very small pictures and font is too difficult to read. you are moving very fast ahead in speaking. Makes little difficult to understand.

I am so happy my kids have gone through school/university without being subjected to this leftist brainwashing identity programme and political agenda.

What are your thoughts on the cult like following of "Jordan Peterson" and his emphasis on the individual taking personal responsibility for everything? I wonder why he has such a large cult following and so much influence :S

great video thank you so much! could you go through some good 20/30 markers on crime please :)

I Love this

Hi, great video! Do you have education policy 1 up, please?

great, thank you

The belief boys should be strong allows more aggressive treatment as early as one year of age, designed to create more layers of anger, fear, and tension, so they will be prepared to fight, defend, and be tough. This is coupled with “much less” kind, stable, (very little kind verbal interaction) and much less mental/emotional support, knowledge, and skills for fear of coddling. It is this more aggressive, less supportive treatment, which creates the toughness or extra maintained layers of average stress: anger, fear, preparation for defense, anxiety, etc. These layers remain in the mind and take away real mental energy from academics, so those boys will have to work two or three times as hard to receive the same mental reward for mental work expended. This aggressive, less supportive treatment along with less verbal interaction creates more social/emotional distance/distrust of others - parents, teachers, peers, and others in society. It creates much less social vocabulary, knowledge of syntax and other communication we as girls are given on a continual basis from infancy. I feel this much less interaction also deprives boys, later men of many more areas of knowledge and skills girls are given through much more continual interaction and support/communication from everyone. Worse, this more aggressive and less supportive treatment leads to even more, sustained weights and values of more distance and even less social development over time while girls, later women who are given much kind, caring, verbal interaction/support continue are able to develop and use more and more social vocabulary and much more knowledge over time. From this treatment, I feel boys effectively understand about a third of the communication they have with parents, teachers, and other adults. The higher average stress creates more activity for stress relief (not genetics environmentally created). The total effect including less care and support creates much more failure and a feeling of hopelessness, especially with our false genetic models firmly in place. Also to make it even tougher for boys is the granting of love and honor (feelings of self-worth) only on condition of achievement, status, or image. This was designed to keep Male esteem and feelings of self-worth low to keep them striving and be willing to give their lives in war for small measures of love and honor from society. Males not achieving in school or other areas are given more ridicule and discipline to make them try harder. Support is not given boys for fear of coddling and the false genetic models. Many boys (as you would expect) thus falling behind in school then turn their attention to sports and video games to gleam small measures of love and honor not received in the classroom. The belief boys should be strong and the false belief in genetics creates a blatant mental denial of the differential treatment, which is creating the lower academics, low esteem, and other problems many boys are facing today. So strong is the belief boys should be strong there is an almost emotional cannibalism allowed upon boys and men who appear weak in some way by society: parents, teachers, others, even from many girls and women, especially in the media. Note, this is not about showing feelings or openness from boys and men, it is about support, care, and respect for boys even when appearing weak in some way. Remember aggressive treatment is increased for any sign of weakness and so boys have much wariness for parents and teachers who feel it necessary and are more freely allowed to use more aggressiveness for any sign of weakness or vulnerability. This is condoned by many in society today. As for reading, we need high social vocabulary, much social/verbal interaction experience with sentence structure and “lower average stress” to perform and enjoy the abstract skills of reading: decoding, visualizing, organizing, reaching into their social vocabulary/knowledge of words to learn new words in print, and enjoy the process. Boys are deprived in these areas due to much less care, verbal interaction, and much more aggressive treatment. As for writing, we also need much social vocabulary to understand, plan, and to put words into print. We also need lower average stress to create more ease of writing. The higher average stress creates significant higher muscle tension, which then creates a much tighter grip and more pressure on their pen or pencil. This creates poor handwriting and early fatigue. This kills off their motivation to write, hence more two and three word sentences from boys with and less motivation. There is a wrinkle to this. There are a "very few boys" given more stable, correct support from a few families which is enabling those few boys to succeed in school. This enables those boys to do well in school and receive love and honor from others, which they must continually keep doing to keep earning love and honor from society. This then becomes a never-ending drug for those boys which drives them to continually achieve in school. Those very few boys will be driven to continually achieve both in school and society with much more success due to the drug of achievement to earn love and honor. As girls we are treated much better and enjoy much more hope and care from society. Since we as girls are given by differential treatment, much more continual, positive - mental, social, emotional support, verbal interaction from an early age onward, this creates quite the opposite outcome for girls when compared with the boys. The much more verbal interaction also transfers and creates many small and large arrays of real knowledge and skills, which are “important for learning, communication, and working with knowledge and skills”. I feel this is creating a significant advantage for girls and women. We enjoy much more care and support from society, from infancy through adulthood and receive love and honor simply for being girls. This creates all of the good things. This is even so for lower socioeconomic environments, where even here, girls, later women are able to perform very well in school and society due to much better continual support from everyone. We enjoy lower average stress for more ease of learning. We enjoy much more freedom of expression from much protection that makes us look more unstable at times. Of course we can also use that same tremendous freedom of expression to give verbal, silent abuse, and hollow kindness/patronization to our Male peers with impunity knowing we are protected. We enjoy much lower muscle tension for more ease and ability in handwriting and motivation to write. We enjoy much more positive, trust/communication from parents, teachers, peers, and more support for perceived weaknesses. We are reaping a bonanza in the information age. The lower the socioeconomic bracket the much more amplified the differential treatment from infancy and more differentiated over time through adulthood. Now with girls and women taking over many areas of society, we are enjoying even more lavishing of love and honor from society, while the boys and men are now failing more so and are now given even more ridicule and abuse by society. Mind you, this is also now coming from many girls and women using our still very protected freedoms of expression and more so with false feelings of superiority in society. What is worse, the modeling of an aggressive posture by parents, teachers, peers, and the media toward boys, later men and much more love and honor for girls have created a growing institutionalized acceptance of feelings of superiority and much vocalization of more patronization/condescending speech toward boys and men today.

Thank you so much

Hello, I found this video to be very interesting and definitely useful. Well done :) Do you have a reference list for the video?

Thank you so much for this video

Very useful,thank you. How could one apply the sociological imagination when studying social networks (relationships) of micro and small business success/failure?

Thank you Alexandra for a superb lecture. I've got an MA in Social and Cultural Theory, yet I learnt new stuff on this video, and it was enjoyable and very interesting, thank you!

Post-Modernism = the abandonment of empirical sociology in favor of post-modernist theory. Laughable the govt controls education when public (private) school graduates have always run everything. Govt does not control the elite non-govt schools, they control the govt.

No class diferences, what nonsense empirically.

No value consensus, so the left out must choose violence to survive?
