Understanding identity development in society explains a lot about how people socialize, which is why I'm interested in soc. Reactions and judgments people make or people think are made about them affect how individuals interact 9/10 #soctheory #soc308
I believe the "self" is made up of "I" and "Me." The "me" is representative of the expectations and attitudes of others, while "I" is the person's individuality. The self is developed from interaction and observation of one another. #soc308 8/10
My purpose is to bring awareness to the issue that workers face in capitalism. Workers are exploited by the owners of the means of production in capitalism and my sociological view calls this out. Social change will happen and capitalism will fall. #soc308 #socialtheory 9/10
If I were still alive, I would be appalled at how much women's rights have regressed. Seeing where reproductive rights stand now, I would be writing multiple pieces on my opinions and plans of action, as well as creating safe havens for women in need. 10/10 #soc308 #soctheory
I’m most known for my looking-glass self-theory. I developed this theory based on my observations that the way someone viewed themselves was a result of how they believed others perceived them. This impacts an individual's self-image. 6/10 #soctheory #soc308
Herbert Spencer's work sparked my interest in returning to school to study sociology and political science. I drifted away from Spencer’s ideas because I didn’t like how he included a lot of mechanistic analogies. I found this made his ideas lack value. 5/10 #soctheory #soc308
I developed conflict theory which is the idea that society is in constant conflict over limited resources. I connect this idea to class conflict as the bourgeoisie hold power over the working class and use their labor for financial/social benefit. #soc308 #socialtheory 6/10
The looking-glass theory is associated with symbolic interactionism, a micro-level theory. It focuses on how Individuals define themselves by their social interactions & how they believe others perceive them as well as the symbols that may be tied to them 4/10 #soctheory #soc308
I published a book in 1902 titled, “Human Nature and Social Order.” I first introduced my social theory of the looking-glass self in this book which focuses on how people view themselves through the eyes of others. This is arguably my most famous work. 3/10 #soctheory #soc308
My successful father allowed me to live free of financial worries, gifting me the time to relax & enjoy a life filled with reflection & studying. During this time, I contemplated the idea of self, then took those ideas and applied them to my children. #soc308 #socialtheory 2/10
I went to the University of Michigan because I didn’t want to drift away from my home, Ann Arbor. After fighting with illness I eventually graduated with my bachelor's in mechanical engineering, but I always knew my heart was in philosophy & economics. #soc308 #socialtheory 1/10
I am the founder of American pragmatism and social psychology. I am often found to be associated with symbolic interactionism. I believe that one is not born with an identity of their self, but instead find it through social experience. #soc308 #socialtheory 1/10
When I moved to Paris, I started writing for the Jahrbücher where I expressed my support for communism. While the Jahrbücher was banned and eventually fell apart, my experience was the first step in developing my views for working-class rights. #soc308 #socialtheory 2/10
I was excused from military duty at 18 due to being diagnosed with a "weak chest" allowing me to go to university. I wanted to study philosophy but my father insisted that I study law. However, I combined studying law with my interest in philosophy. #soc308 #socialtheory 1/10
But the current divide between society regarding wealth, health care, education, housing, and overall well-being is unfathomable. #soc308 #socialtheory 10/10
If I were still alive today, I would continue to discuss the inequalities of gender in society. The gender pay gap is an example of inequalities b/w men & women currently. I would continue to advocate for women & their right to equal pay as men. #socialtheory #soc308 10/10
To answer my own question, I believe that people alter their "acts /"performances" to make a good impression of themselves and not embarrass themselves. In the front stage, we internalize the expectations of the norm and alter our performances to align #soc308 #socialtheory 8/10
In regard to the current mental health epidemic, I think that there need to be more community and employment outreach programs aimed at teaching Americans emotional intelligence. 10/10 #soc308 #socialtheory
My purpose in studying sociology is to better understand the impact of emotions and empathy on our thinking and behavior. I was inspired to study the home and work lives of women because there appeared to be a fault-line present that is harmful to the entire family. 9/10 #soc308
This is ultimately how we find ourselves getting further away from our real selves which is harmful to our emotional health. 8/10 #soc308 #socialtheory
