  2. SOCIAL CONTROL • Norms • Expected behaviour associated with a role • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8Vj3otRr4Q&safe=active • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgso3Y-l0h8&playnext=1&list=PL66E98572FF386A50&feature=results_video • Folkways • are informal norms that are common practices of society • In our culture things like table manners, personal hygiene, and ways of dress are folkways • The introduction of the car produced the associated folkways of men opening the door for female passengers, and the methods of allowing traffic to merge http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xc8KrA7Litk

  3. SOCIAL CONTROL • Mores • Norms that have great moral significance associated with them • concerned with values that society views as important • If a person violates, he or she risks social disapproval or social rejection • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUyXVh7YzvE • Mores can change over time • Acceptable male and female interaction has changed considerably since your grandparents were dating http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AgOwRQlsyNo

  4. SOCIAL CONTROL • Taboos • is the ultimate prohibition of an action based on the belief that such behavior is either too sacred or too accursed for ordinary individuals to undertake • Sigmund Freud posited that incest and patricide were the only two universal taboos and formed the basis of civilization. • However, although cannibalism, in-group murder, and incest are taboo in the majority of societies, modern research has found exceptions for each and no taboo is presently known to be universal • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6mmZPZ3-Mg

  5. SOCIAL CONTROL • Taboos • changing social customs and standards also create new taboos, such as bans on slavery; prohibitions on alcohol, tobacco, or psychopharmaceutical consumption among pregnant women • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cO2am5gxPbE • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12OAr0lt4bk

  6. SOCIAL CONTROL • Laws • Formal norms determined by governments and supported by punishments • Cover a wide range of issues from jay-walking to robbery • Interpretation is complex but in our society one is innocent until proven guilty

  7. ROLES AND STATUShttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuegyXaWFX4 • Ascribed roles • A position or role one is born into • Ex: gender, birth order, heir to the throne, family relations • Achieved roles • A position in society one earns on merit • Roberta Bondar worked her way to becoming the fist Canadian women in space

  8. ROLES AND STATUS • Role Behaviour • The actual behaviour of one who plays a role • Actual behaviour may vary based on the degree of commitment • All people violate the expectations of their roles from time to time • Not all soldiers are brave, not all teachers are kind, not all policemen are fair and honest • However certain roles, due to their status carry a higher expectation for appropriate behaviour • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UEmjwR0Rs20

  9. ROLES AND STATUS • Role Conflict http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WGNAwdkoGo • A normal person plays a great variety of roles, and these roles can be conflicting • Often we are aware of these conflicts • Your example study, or hang out with your friends • My example teacher versus principal • Also teacher versus parent • Role Failure • Fail to achieve the role that is their goal • Do not get accepted into post secondary • Fail the entrance exam for your trade or profession • Marriage failure, divorce http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqqf7upQOo8

  10. SANCTIONS IN SOCIETY • Sanctions • Rewards or punishments used to enforce conformity to norms • In childhood, getting picked first or last are examples of a sanction in gym class • In the workforce getting a promotion or bonus, getting a demotion or fired are examples • Sanction may be defined as either physical or psychological depending on their nature

  11. SANCTIONS IN SOCIETY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx8fEZFrxl8 • Physical Sanctions • Relate to a persons body or physical health and well being • In sports examples would be running lines based on missing a certain number of free throws • Psychological Sanctions • Relate to a person’s emotions and how one feels • An in school suspension is a psychological sanction, grounding would be another example

  15. THE TAO OF LINH DO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32GPv32hkHE&list=PL66E98572FF386A50 In this talk, Linh Do asks some important questions: What is normal? And how abnormal do we have to be to effect social change? 19-year-old Linh Do is the founder of Change and Switch in Australia. Four years ago, Linh initiated the Change a Million Light Bulbs project in Melbourne to get people to switch from incandescent to LED or compact fluorescent light bulbs. The project later went Australia-wide under the name Change and Switch and, as of November 2009, incandescent light bulbs are no longer for sale in Australia.
