Excellent lecture. Good use of PowerPoint as well. I'm in a Sociology class and was looking for more information on stratification. You made it very clear. KZbin is a great resource help learn and understand a subject. University of KZbin? Worlds Oldest College Student and disabled veteran.

[@crabman5132]

this was pretty helpful but what i really wanted to know was, what are the behavioral norms of the different social class. but this too was quite enlightening

[@crabman5132]

sorry i took this long to reply but thanks for the help i looked at it and i got an A for that assignment :)

I think that social class begins with the financial differences and then the social interests follow out from there. Some people exhibit social class markers that are different from their actual wealth, but determining wealth, like determining the meaning of social class markers, is somewhat blurry.

Thank you

In South Asia, the caste system is still prominent. There have been incidents where so-called untouchables were beaten to death for entering into a kitchen of a person from high class. Only a handful of people from lower caste are able to change their status through education, political power and economic growth.

she sounds like jan from the office

[@jaymack8464]

That description could match a lot of people

[@AidanTheLoverBoyOhDwyer]

Hello. Quite tired here. Been researching like crazy but cannot find the difference between social stratification and economic stratification.

[@fredwelf8650]

Good point, it is difficult to find out what a person's financial status is but you can make inferences from their line of work. However, social stratification follows educational differences, or at least differences in literacy - whether the person actually reads and writes in a relevant manner, or whether reading and writing is purely functional which holds for the majority!

[@Mcamdertok2001]

Hello Mam can I connect with you...

[@QushykaEducation]

its good

[@alperenaydn6757]

Very good verbalism but I think you shouldn't use to Powerpoint because these videos are needed visual objects.

[@patrickcrawford6392]

Are you really a college professor???

[@Remembering-rq6si]

Most likely, she is. As unbelievable as that sounds, check out the color of her skin and her name. Affirmative action has unintended and embarassing consequences.

[@Synthminator]

exogamy sure, but only one direction: woman marrying up, don't expect otherwise.

[@pomwenepouwa687]

+ThePreciseMoment Don't be so inconsiderate in your reasoning. Life is not static, but moving in all direction.

[@Synthminator]

Pomwene Pouwa Sure, just talking about trends

[@pomwenepouwa687]

+ThePreciseMoment I mean a man from poor society or low-class can marry to a girl from either upper-class or rich girl depend on their love and not their status.

[@Synthminator]

Pomwene Pouwa Do you know many examples of that? I dont

[@pomwenepouwa687]

Yes of course I know and one of them is me to start with dear. Things are falling apart, don't just sleep at work. Life is not stagnant. Maybe you will also fall in this category I just mentioned.lol
