The Construction of the Colonial Order: From the Pages of History to Contemporary Times
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page contention that the same construction of the colonial order which has determined much of our history also controls many aspects of our contemporary world. This contention is presented with the backdrop of the historical interaction which occurred between colonizers and the colonized to emphasize that the same scenario is unfolding today even in countries like the United States as our tendency for the world view of “us” verses “them” determines our relations with one another. With such recent incidents as the Rodney King beating, a beating forever etched into our minds by the modern technological marvel of the video camera, the construction of the colonial order has progressed forward from the pages of history and into our contemporary social consciousness.

The Cultural Transmission Theory in Sociology
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 3 page paper discussing the cultural transmission theory in sociology. Cultural transmission theory in sociology addresses the societal and cultural influences, impact and transmission of acceptable societal norms, perceptions and behaviors within generations and across generations of members of the same culture. Transmitted cultural behaviors can lead to generations of racism, sexism, deviance and poverty. One aspect of social evolution to remember however, of which cultural transmission is a major component, is that it is purposeful, innovative and adaptive to new societal changes. Whereas biological evolution takes generations for change, social evolution can occur within generations. Cultural transmission can have a predictable process in which cultures can adapt to societies outside of their own and change their cultural frame accordingly. Despite this process of adaptation however, historical cultural components still exist within the transmission process which results in some of the differences found between different cultures within the same geographical location.
