Anthony Giddens’ Response to Emile Durkheim’s “Suicide”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing Giddens’ response to Durkheim’s suicide. Anthony Giddens is a modern day sociologist who has proposed a new theory of “structuration” which he considers as his “concern to develop an ontological framework for the study of human social activities”. In doing this, Giddens offers a more expansive and open method in the study of society and institutions in which he hopes will offer an alternative to many of the traditional sociological methods used. Emile Durkheim in his study on “Suicide” provided one of the first systematic presentations of suicide as a sociological phenomenon. Consistent with the functionalist theories however, Durkheim offered three definitions of suicide, egoistic, altruistic and anomic, which were all functional aspects of society. Giddens believed that the functionalist argument could not possibly account for the various factors influencing suicide and within his argument and general dismisses much of Durkheim’s definitions. He also presents other misunderstandings and controversies which surrounded Durkheim’s study on suicide which somewhat validate his claim that the functionalist perspective is not complete in its relation to the discussion of suicide.
Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Applying Popper to Educational Research
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper applying Karl Popper’s approach to the scientific method to educational research. There is a wealth of research in education, much of it virtually worthless. For decades, it seemed that researchers turned to qualitative methods only when they could not fit hypotheses into quantitative approaches, and qualitative studies frequently were not designed well with reference to validity and reliability. The result was that method purists often regarded qualitative educational research as less than “real” science. Today’s educational research is designed much better than in the past. It still could benefit from the application of Karl Popper’s approach to the scientific method, however, which approaches validity and theory verification from a different perspective. Bibliography lists 13 sources.
