W5. Sociocultural Evolution(2) / Lee Se Hyun


Summary

The modern anthropological and sociological approach has changed as criticism of the classical social evolution theory has been accepted. Changed into a non-sourcing, ethnocentric conjecture, approach to avoid comparison or value judgement. This is a view of respect for diversity. Since then, the theory of evolutionary mechanism behind social behavior such as modernization, altruism, invasion and upbringing, and modernization that combines the theory of evolutionary mechanism with actual experience, empirical research, and especially the theory of the age of decolonization, emerged, trying to explain objectively and simply based on empirical evidence in archaeology and history, and to remove references to the value system morally and culturally. They are divided into political, technical and anthropological perspectives.

Interesting point


After the theory of social evolution, scholars accepted criticism and created a new theory. I tried to look at society from various perspectives, not from a single perspective. He also tried to look at it from an objective point of view as much as possible, paying extreme attention to intervention in value judgments. This represented a variety of perspectives. It was interesting that the respect for diversity that I was emphasized in school was derived from modern sociological theories.

Question


Modern theory makes great efforts to respect diversity. Contrary to their wishes, modern society has many conflicts and intensifies over diversity. Can we explain this phenomenon with the theory we have learned?

However, upon encountering the MDGs, I learned that the international community is making great efforts to ensure human rights. Among the MDG criticisms, criticism of women's inequality was interesting. The phenomenon of female ineq...

What is meant by that? / Lee hayoung

Q. Society is not determined by technology, nor is technology determined by society. Both emerge as two sides of the sociotechnical coin. What is meant by that? A. So to begin with, I think that society and technology are the relationships that influence each other, the concepts that one cannot include or dominate. There is technology in society, and technology exists because there is society. I think it's an inseparable relationship, so I think it can be expressed in both sides of a coin.

Summary Human rights are the basic right to live as a person. This is an absolute domain. Applicable regardless of ethnicity, gender, age, or location and guaranteed by international law. Human rights have been modified and established over a long period of time.
