Essay about Current Issues
Refer to Chapter. 1 to review the three major sociological perspectives.
Use all three perspectives (functionalism, conflict and interactionism) to analyze any current issue:
(Global warming, terrorism, gender roles, personal branding, science and technology, utopian society, economy, leadership, discrimination, relationships, health, gun control, immigration, disabilities, minimum wage, abortion, cohabitation, etc.). You can choose one to make it easier for you 🙂
Write a 700- to 1,000-word essay in which you complete the following:
- Give a brief introduction that identifies the issue you have chosen and why.
- Describe in three separate paragraphs how each perspective would view or explain the issue.
- Include elements of culture and how humans learn, develop, and become integrated into society.
- Provide a conclusion that discusses which perspective you think is most applicable to the issue or how the three perspectives complement one another in understanding the issue.
