Different Perspectives of Socialization within Society and The Development of the Concept of Self
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing the different perspectives of socialization in society in relation to self-image and adaptation. Socialization for individuals within society takes place from different perspectives as members of society change their roles throughout their lives and must learn the different socialization tactics related to each new role they adopt. Children and adolescents learn from the failures and successes within the socialization process which helps them to adapt to new stressful situations in addition to developing their self-image. Success in the socialization process creates a positive self-image whereas failures in the socialization process may lead to negative self-image. In addition to members within society adapting to new roles, which also include joining organizational institutions which use a variety of socialization tactics for newcomers, people from other cultures also have to learn various tactics for socialization within their new society. Sociologists advocate that society has developed a great many inequalities in the divisions between groups which exist and depending on the success or failure of adaptation through socialization, newcomers in societies will also form concepts of their self-image which may or may not allow them to conform and cross societal divisions.

Does Lyotard's Social Theory Help One To Understand The Strengths And Limitations Of Durkheim's?
[ send me this paper ]
15 pages in length. Lyotard's social theory helps one to understand both the strengths and limitations of Durkheim's conjecture, in that it allows for one to gain a significantly better understanding of how postindustrialization forced humanity to fall � at least to some extent � out of touch with the discourse of knowledge. Individualism, capitalism, consumerism and all the other postmodern quests for which people only thought they desired turned out, according to Lyotard, to be a complete abandonment of narratives, ultimately and effectively shattering the fundamental basis upon which mankind understands his existence. Bibliography lists 9 sources.
