Question 38

Emerged in the fifteenth century and is derived from the French société.
The French word, in turn, had its origin in the Latin societas, a “friendly
association with others,” from socius meaning “companion, associate,
comrade or business partner.” Essential in the meaning of society is that
its members share some mutual concern or interest, a common objective or
common characteristics, often a common culture.

society

Question 42

According to sociologist Richard Jenkins, the term addresses a number of important
existential issues facing people:

Answer 42

• How humans think and exchange information.
• Many phenomena cannot be reduced to individual behavior
• Collectives often endure beyond the lifespan of individual members.
• The human condition has always meant going beyond the evidence of our senses.

Question 43

Who stated this:
Human beings are intrinsically, necessarily, and by definition social beings
who–beyond being “gregarious creatures”–cannot survive and meet
their needs other than through social co-operation and association.
Their social characteristics are therefore to a large extent an objectively given
fact, stamped on them from birth and affirmed by socialization processes;
and, according to Marx, in producing and reproducing their material life,
people must necessarily enter into relations of production which are
“independent of their will.”

Answer 43

Karl Marx

Question 44

Defined human action as “social” if, by virtue of the subjective meanings attached to the action by individuals, it “takes account the behavior of others, and is thereby oriented in its course.” In this case, the “social” domain really exists only in the intersubjective relations between individuals, but by implication the life of these individuals also exists in part outside the social domain. “Social” is thus implicitly also contrasted with “private.”

Answer 44

Max Weber

Question 45

a social fact is an abstraction external to the individual which constrains that
individuals’ actions. In this 1895 work Rules of Sociological Method,
Durkheim wrote: A social fact is every way of acting, fixed or not, capable of
exercising on the individual an influence, or an external constraint; or again,
every way of acting which is general throughout a given society, while at the
same time existing in its own right independent of its individual
manifestations.

Answer 45

Emile Durkheim

Question 46

Answer 47

Palispis, 2007

Question 48

____ means of Society used in responding to nature, not to respond merely to
various forces of the physical environment that defines a person as well as human
being endowed with his inherent freedom and rationality. It is one of the most
important concepts within sociology because sociologists recognize that it plays a
crucial role in our social lives. It is important for shaping social relationships,
maintaining and challenging social order, determining how we make sense
of the world and our place in it, and in shaping our everyday actions and
experiences in society. It is composed of both non-material and material things.

Answer 48

Culture

Question 49

The values and beliefs, language, communication, and practices that are
shared in common by a group of people. Expanding on these categories, culture
is made up of our knowledge, common sense, assumptions, and expectations. It is
also the rules, norms, laws, and morals that govern society; the words we use as well
as how we speak and write them (what sociologists call “discourse”); and the
symbols we use to express meaning, ideas, and concepts. Culture is also what we do
and how we behave and perform. It informs and is encapsulated in how we walk,
sit, carry our bodies, and interact with others; how we behave depending on the
place, time, and “audience;” and how we express identities of race, class, gender, and
sexuality, among others. Culture also includes the collective practices we participate
in, such as religious ceremonies, the celebration of secular holidays, and attending
sporting events.

Answer 63

language is symbolic

Question 64

It is entirely dependent on who uses it, for what reasons, within what context, and for what purpose. Culture is the setting that enables the medium of language. It is

Question 69

Language and its Functions (6)

Answer 69

1. Expressive and Communicative Functions
2. Control Function
3. The Functions of Remembering and Thinking
4. The Discovery of One’s Name
5. Social Functions of Language
6. Creative Functions

Question 70

The most basic function of language as we can guess, is that of the expressive function, an attempt to express a sudden change of state, fear, delight, pain or confusion. expression is not a deliberate, conscious expression, but a spontaneous immediate response not directed towards any other object.

Answer 70

Expressive and Communicative Functions

Question 71

When one talks of the function of
control, there emerges a social dimension apart from the
individual dimension. Gradually, as associations get
established between certain states of existence and a
stimulus on the one hand and certain sounds, there
results in the reproducibility of a reaction. Thus, the child
cries when he is hungry or suffering from pain. This cry
in turn makes the mother, or even the animal mother,
rush to help. Here is the beginning of control.

Answer 71

Control Function

Question 72

Imagine our being able to think and remember
without the use of words. It is almost impossible to
recall or remember or think without the use of
words and therefore, language. It is language, which
helps us to encode experiences, store them and
retrieve and decode. It is language, which helps us to
translate experiences into thought and engage in
processes of different types.

Answer 72

The Functions of Remembering and Thinking

Question 73

One of the
important milestones in the development of the
child is the discovery that he or she has a name and,
this is the beginning of the sense of self-identity
which leads to feelings like me, mine, others, not me,
etc. The discovery of one’s name plays a very crucial
role in the overall psychological development of the
individual.

Answer 73

The Discovery of One’s Name

Question 74

In addition to
these individual functions, language performs a very
important social function. While promoting a sense
of personal identity language also serves to develop
a sense of social identity, a sense of belongingness
to a particular group, marking out different degrees
of social proximity and distance.

Answer 74

Social Functions of Language

Question 75

Language plays a very crucial
role in imaginative and creative activity. Is it possible
to think of writing a novel or poetry without
language? Language, then not only helps us to
control and regulate our cognitions but also enables
us to break free and engage in creative imagination.
Here again, paradoxically, language also contributes
to the emergence of very ‘creative’ delusions and
belief systems in the mentally ill.

Answer 75

Creative Functions

Question 76

The practice of assessing a culture by its own standards rather thanviewing it through the lens of one’s own culture. Practicing cultural relativism requires an open mind and a willingness to consider, and even adapt to, new values and norms. However, indiscriminately embracing everything about a new culture is not always possible.

Answer 76

cultural relativism

Question 77

Even the most culturally relativist people from egalitarian societies ones in
which women have political rights and control over their own bodies would
question whether the widespread practice of female genital mutilation in
countries such as Ethiopia and Sudan should be accepted as a part of
cultural tradition. Sociologists attempting to engage in cultural relativism,
then, may struggle to reconcile aspects of their own culture with aspects of a
culture they are studying. Sometimes when people attempt to rectify feelings
of ethnocentrism and to practice cultural relativism, they swing too far to the
other end of the spectrum.

Answer 77

cultural relativism

Question 78

Example of Cultural relativism by ____, ____
What constitutes breakfast varies widely from place to place. What is
considered a typical breakfast in Turkey, as illustrated in the above image, is
quite different from what is considered a typical breakfast in the U.S. or
Japan.

Answer 78

Cole, Nicki Lisa Ph.D., (2019)

Question 79

The opposite of ethnocentrism, and refers to the belief that another culture is superior to one’s own. (The Greek root word xeno, pronounced “ZEE-no,” means “stranger” or “foreign guest.”) An exchange student who goes home after a semester abroad or a sociologist who returns from the field may find it difficult to associate with the values of their own culture after having experienced what they deem a more upright or nobler way of living. Perhaps the greatest challenge for sociologists studying different cultures is the matter of keeping a perspective.

Answer 79

xenocentrism

Question 80

It is impossible for anyone to keep all cultural biases at bay; the best we can
do is strive to be aware of them. Pride in one’s own culture doesn’t have to
lead to imposing its values on others. And an appreciation for another
culture shouldn’t preclude individuals from studying it with a critical eye.

Answer 80

Xenocentrism

Question 81

million years ago (mya). In 1959
and 1960 the first fossils were
discovered at Olduvai Gorge in
northern Tanzania.

Answer 84

Homo habilis

Question 85

This discovery was a turning point in the science of paleoanthropology because the oldest previously known human fossils were Asian
specimens of Homo erectus. Many features of ____ appear to be intermediate in terms of
evolutionary development between the relatively primitive Australopithecus and the moreadvanced Homo species.

Answer 85

homo habilis

Question 86

(Latin: “upright man”)

Answer 86

homo erectus

Question 87

extinct species of the human genus (Homo), perhaps an ancestor of modern humans (Homo sapiens). ____ most likely originated in Africa, though Eurasia cannot be ruled out. Regardless of where it first evolved, the species seems to have dispersed quickly, starting about 1.9 million years ago (mya) near the middle of the Pleistocene Epoch, moving through the African tropics, Europe, South Asia, and
Southeast Asia.

Answer 87

homo erectus

Question 88

This history has been recorded directly
if imprecisely by many sites that have
yielded fossil remains of____. At
other localities, broken animal bones
and stone tools have indicated the
presence of the species, though there
are no traces of the people themselves.

stature that walked upright. The
braincase was low, the forehead was
receded, and the nose, jaws, andpalate
were wide.

Answer 88

homo erectus

Question 89

The brain was smaller and the teeth larger than in modern humans. ____ appears to have been the first human species to control fire, some 1,000,000 years ago. The species seems to have flourished until some 200,000 years ago (200 kya) or perhaps later before giving way to other humans including Homo sapiens.

Answer 89

homo erectus

Question 90

Also spelled Neandertal, member
of a group of archaic humans who
emerged at least 200,000 years
ago during the Pleistocene Epoch
(about 2.6 million to 11,700 years
ago) and were replaced or
assimilated by early modern
human populations (Homo
sapiens) between 35,000 and
perhaps 24,000 years ago.

Answer 90

HOMO NEANDERTHALENSIS

Question 91

____ inhabited Eurasia from the
Atlantic regions of Europe eastward to
Central Asia, from as far north as present-day
Belgium and as far south as the
Mediterranean and southwest Asia. Similar
archaic human populations lived at the same
time in eastern Asia and in Africa. Because
____ lived in a land of abundant
limestone caves, which preserved bones well,
and where there has been a long history of
prehistoric research, they are better known
than any other archaic human group.
Consequently, they have become the
archetypal “cavemen”.

Answer 91

HOMO NEANDERTHALENSIS

Question 92

The name ____ derives
from the NeanderValley
(German NeanderThal or
NeanderTal) in Germany,
where the fossils were

The beginning of the Neolithic
Revolution in different regions
has been dated from perhaps
8,000 BCE in the Kuk Early
Agricultural Site of Melanesia
Kuk to 2,500 BCE in
Subsaharan Africa, with some
considering the developments
of 9,000-7,000 BCE in the
Fertile Crescent to be the most
important.

Answer 95

The Neolithic Revolution: From
Hunter-Gatherer to Agriculturalist

Question 96

This transition everywhere is
associated with the change
from a largely nomadic huntergatherer way of life to a more
settled, agrarian-based one,
due to the inception of the
domestication of various plant
and animal species—depending
on the species locally available,
and probably also influenced by
local culture.

Raphael Pumpelly in 1908,
V. Gordon Childe in 1928

Question 99

Proposed by _ in _, suggests
that agriculture began in the
hilly flanks of the Taurus and
Zagros mountains, where the
climate was not drier, as Childe

land supported a variety of
plants and animals amenable
to domestication.

Answer 99

The Hilly Flanks Hypothesis
Robert Braidwood in 1948

Question 100

____ suggests that
agriculture was driven by
ostentatious displays of
power, such as giving
feasts, to exert dominance.
This system required

THE DEMOGRAPHIC THEORIES
Carl Sauer, Lewis Binford and Kent Flannery

Question 102

Developed by _
and others, views agriculture
as an evolutionary
adaptation of plants and
humans. Starting with

activities together.

Answer 108

Primary groups

Question 109

Comprise relatively impersonal and temporary relationships that are goal- or
task-oriented and are often found in employment or educational settings. While
the relationships within primary groups are intimate, personal, and enduring,
the relationships within secondary groups are organized around narrow ranges
