Symbolic Interactionist Title Symbolic Interactionism Citation Carter, M. J., & Fuller, C. (2015). Symbolic interactionism. Sociopedia. isa , 1 (1), 1-17. https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Michael-Carter-10/publication /303056565_Symbolic_Interactionism/links/ 57364c7e08ae9ace840af382/Symbolic-Interactionism.pdf Annotation This article is about the connection between humanity and symbols. This study looks at symbolic interactionism, a micro-level sociological theory that emphasizes how people influence society through direct contact. It covers three primary theoretical schools, the Chicago, Iowa, and Indiana Schools, led by Herbert Blumer, Manford Kuhn, and Sheldon Stryker. The fundamental assumptions and distinctive research approaches of each tradition are described. The report examines decades' worth of empirical research from various traditions, highlighting their significant contributions and concludes by asserting that despite diversification, symbolic interactionism is still important and alive in sociology, providing a bright future for the advancement of the discipline. Title Symbolic Interactionism Theory & Examples Citation Nickerson, C. (2023, May 10). Symbolic Interactionism Theory & Examples . Simply Psychology. https://www.simplypsychology.org/symbolic-interaction- theory.html Annotation This article explores the theory of symbolic interactionism. In terms of history, key principles, and how symbolic interactionism flows with communication between others, developing ideas,and establishing
meanings. Symbolic interactionists place a strong emphasis on the self, a notion that enables us to quantify the outcomes of our actions. It's a viewpoint that claims that social structures like language are the result of common symbols. The meanings that people attribute to events and interactions with others serve to form the social environment, and these symbols are passed down through the generations through language. Functionalist Title Citation Annotation Title The functional theory of stratification: some neglected considerations. Citation Wrong, D. H. (1959). The functional theory of stratification: some neglected considerations. American Sociological Review , 772-782. Annotation The purpose of the Davis-Moore functional theory of stratification is to explain the existence and fundamental character of inequality in societies with complex labor divisions. Instead of focusing on particular societal inequality ranges or determinants, it diverges from explaining labor division or the maintenance of familial inequalities, staying inclusive of several "classless society" models. However, critics claim that the theory downplays inherited positions and ignores the historical background. Additionally, it ignores the disruptive effects of mobility and equal opportunity, a subject that American sociologists have generally avoided. The theory's conclusion shows that while unfair awards might spur people to learn new talents and take on challenging activities, those who receive them have a tendency to magnify and maintain current inequities, even if they are not able to pass on their advantages to their children. Conflict Title Inequality, Environmental Injustice, and Racism in Brazil: Beyond the Question of Colour Citation Pacheco, T. (2008). Inequality, Environmental Injustice, and Racism in Brazil: Beyond the Question of Colour. Development in Practice , 18 (6), 713–725. http://www.jstor.org/stable/27751978 Annotation In this article, Pacheo focuses on the racial injustice in Brazil. He highlights how environmental racism in Brazil affected the indigenous people of northern Espinto Santos by making them break their traditions and lose their identities. This article showed
that the Sao Paulo newspaper reflects that the Brazilian elites considered the blacks as inferior and human scum. It highlights that racism and prejudice are not restricted to Blacks of African descent and are present in our dealings with other communities based on their livelihood. It gave an example of how social class as much as race determined how badly the rich and poor were affected in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina. This article illustrates the complex relationship between social class, and prejudice, and between economic power and racism. Title Citation Annotation
