Social Class Distinctions Based on Spatial and Perceptual Divisions
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper using the theories of Bourdieu, Lacan, Baudrillard and Barthes to discuss the theories of social distinction. Traditionally, sociologists have found distinct separation of the classes based not only on monetary and educational standards but also are largely classified by cultural capital, language and psychological distinctions from others. While parents may attempt to overcome these distinctions through mobilization through the classes in the interests of their children, there are still many factors which they cannot overcome. However, postmodernists do not agree that the same social distinctions are made in today’s society as individuals are overcoming social distinctions and forming new relationships based on common interests and reality because of capitalism, consumerism and the modern media.

Social Construction in Non-Human Animals and Its Significance to Animal Liberation Arguments
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing social construction in non-human animals and its significance in animal liberation discourse. Research within the past several decades has led to many studies which have concluded that animals, and especially primates, have social constructions and social learning behaviors which are similar to that of humans. Through the study of social construction in animals, primates, rats, and guppies among many other species have shown social learning behavior such as family sharing, food foraging instruction, and many other cognitive behavior learning such as induced motivation, matched dependent behavior and emulation of those within their social group among other constructs. In addition to the social constructs which have been found to exist throughout the animal kingdom, researchers and animal activists discuss the importance of letting the social behavior of animals become well known as their “human-like” social constructs may make people realize the importance of liberating those animals held in captivity. Animals activists argue that not only do animals feel pain just as humans do but they also lead productive social lives, previously considered to exist only within humans. Once this has been successfully presented, animals should have the same social rights given to humans in addition to the protection of their natural environments.
