Here, we will examine how population is organized. What do children do when they get together? Here are Lindsay (foreground, left) and Graham (right) at Graham's second birthday. They take each other’s toys Stratification plays a part in almost all social interaction. Graham, it turns out, was a bit of bully. That's OK. Alex, his next door neighbor (six months younger than Graham and one day older then Lindsay), bit Graham. Agenda Stratification Social evolution Stratification is important to the nature of the life course discussed in the last section and closely tied to the distinction between "thin things" and "fat things." Questions for today There are three roughly corresponding questions (more will follow): What are the basic processes of stratification?

Mothers and the process of social stratification Mothers and the process of social stratification / Sylvia Elizabeth Korupp - [S.l.] : [s.n.], 2000 - Tekst. - Proefschrift Universiteit Utrecht NBC: 71.00: sociologie: algemeen Trefwoorden: achievement, classical status attainment model, conventional view, dominance model, educational attainment, educational status equality, equality constraints, event history model, Germany, hazard rate Abstract Adding the mother's influence to the classical status attainment model showed that the main conclusions of stratification research have to be altered regarding the total size of the impact of social origin. The mother's socioeconomic resources have always been an important additional source for the transfer of status advantages from one generation to the nex., The impact of social origin on the education of children increasingly unfolds via the education of both parents and decreasingly via their occupational status. Yet, the occupational resources of the mother are important for the educational attainment level of sons and daughters and for the occupational attainment level of daughters. Mother's influence on her children's educational attainment is as large as the father's influence. The mother influences only her daughter's and not her son's occupational attainment. Later in the daughter's career, the mother's influence becomes stronger than the father's influence on her daughter's occupational status attainment. Interestingly, the mode by which its status resources are transferred differs for the educational and occupational reproduction. Both parents' resources, may the breadwinner be the father or not, are supplementary for the process of educational reproduction. However, within occupational reproduction, the main mode of mother's and father's status transfer are not supplemental. The mother's occupational status does not affect the occupational status attainment of sons.

68. Topic 4a: Basic Concepts In Social Stratification Attempts to interpret these systems have given rise to a number of differentunderstandings of social stratification and inequality. http://carbon.cudenver.edu/public/sociology/introsoc/topics/topic4a.html

A. The Basic concepts Announcements 1. social class: Social class is a ranking or grouping of individuals according to position in the economic scheme of things. Class in this sense can be based on income, source of income (wealth, salary or wages), and occupation. In the terms of Karl Marx, class refers to how a group of people relate to the production of goods and services in the society. The idea of social class is widely used and misused. In the media you will find reference to the middle class very common. However, upon closer inspection you will inevitably find these sources are actually discussing income groups and not social class per se. Economically based class actually refers to the overall position of a group of people. This placement takes into account what kind of work a person does, the kind of income that he or she has and how the person relates to the means of producing goods and services in the society. For example if a person works primarily with the hands at some form of skilled, semi-skilled or unskilled work, one is in the working class (regardless of income). If the work a person does depends more upon the use of the mind or clerical skills, then the person doing that work is considered to be middle class (again independent of income). People who do not have a regular, steady occupation or one that is 'recognized' as legitimate are seen to be part of the lower class or possibly an underclass. Finally, if a person does no productive work but instead commands others to work or relies upon an inheritance or income from investments, than the person is considered upper class. These classifications will be expanded upon later.

Social Stratification Cree women being visited by a white lady, Athabasca Landing, 1912. The Indian's idea of a house is a different one to the trader's. It is not a place to be lived in, but exists merely as a shield from the weather . . . . A thin, pock-marked squaw invites me into a shack or, more properly, into a baby warren which fairly bristles with a flock of semi-wild children, for, as yet, the squaws have not deliberately ceased from having children . . . . An unsavory mess of entrails is stewing in a back pot and filling the house with an unpleasant odour. I try not to show repugnance lest my hostesses consider the white woman to be proud-stomached with no proper appetite for lowly faring. (Note: This ethnocentric account of native life is from a 1912 observation of the Landing by Janey Canuck [pen name of Emily G. Murphy], quoted in Athabasca Historical Society 1986, 153) Cree family outside tipi at Athabasca Landing, 1912

Terms: Social stratification egalitarian Ralf Dahrendorf power charisma (charismatic) model John Davis gender age descent honor class class interest class consciousness bureaucracy means of production Basics of Social Stratification Basic definition: Social stratification has to do with inequality. The way inequality is organized in a particular society. Social stratification has to do with ranking of people as individuals or in groups in a society. Some societies are egalitarian, some are highly stratified. All complex societies are stratified societies. All societies everywhere show some degree of stratification. Introduce basic principle and follow it out in subsequent lectures.

Back to the TAMU-T Home Page George J. Parangimalil, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Sociology Department of Behavioral Sciences PO Box 5518 2600 North Robison Road Texarkana, Texas 75505-5518 (903) 223-3020 (Dept.) (903) 223-3121 (fax) george.parangimalil@tamut.edu Course Description: The study of sociology is an exercise to acquire "sociological imagination," a way of thinking that enables individuals to understand how they are affected by social forces. Among the social forces, social stratification is of paramount importance because of its tremendous influence on the life-chances of all individuals. The study of social stratification involves an examination of the historical and contemporary systems of stratification, problems of class and caste, and trends in class system and social mobility. In addition, it explores the different concepts and theories of social stratification and their global relevance. Specific course objectives: This course will introduce students to sociological analysis of inequality in America. We will explore the social, institutional, and cultural patterns that underlie race, class, and gender inequalities in American society. Specifically, by the end of this course, you should be able to describe and discuss the following: a) the basic concepts of race, class, and gender stratification, b) the role that our social institutions play in class oppression, and c) how a race-, class-, and gender- inclusive framework may be used to analyze social issues.

Comments on Social Stratification Cultural Anthropology Dr. Robert N. Tyzzer The definitions and other items on this page are intended merely to confirm those presented in class. There is no extended discussion and this material should not be considered a substitute for class attendance. Anthropologically, social stratification is the division of society into two or more separate and in some way unequal groups or categories of people. To a great extent stratification is based on the degree to which a society does or does not restrict access to resources, power, and status. Anthropologists common recognize several basic types or patterns of social stratification: Egalitarian societies Ranked societies Class Societies (also called Open Class societies) Caste Societies (also called Closed Class societies) Social stratification is typically based on economic factors, ethnicity, race and racism, or a combination of these. Historically slavery has often been an element of social stratification, although it is a separate but related topic and has occurred within societies with all patterns of stratification.

80. SAT's: Reproducing Social Stratification By Michel Cazary SAT's Reproducing social stratification. by Michel Cazary. Last summerI was helping to teach an SAT preparation course at Crawford http://www-rohan.sdsu.edu/~rgibson/rouge_forum/newspaper/summer2001/SAT.htm

SAT's: Reproducing Social Stratification by Michel Cazary I started to look around me, looking at the kids, the community and the school in order to see what was going on. We were in a low socio-economic part of town that consisted of almost entirely second language students. The class itself had the usual goof-offs who were just not that into being in school during the summertime, but there were also had a large group of students who were recent immigrants, who had not mastered English and had not reached the math level tested on the SAT. How were these students expected to do well on any standardized test? The reading comprehension portions were like a slow death for them, requiring them to drudge through long excerpts taken from books over one hundred years ago, using bizarre words and non-conventional phrasing. What made this whole situation even worse, was knowing that somewhere, far away in La Jolla (the upper class part of San Diego), students were paying $1000 or more for a lovely little SAT class that teaches them how to cheat the test in order to raise their 1250 score to a 1400. It is extremely difficult to explain to the students at Crawford High School that they have such limited opportunities because of simply who they are. It made it even harder to watch how hard they tried, knowing that they still have so many extra obstacles that lay ahead of them. One girl was eight months pregnant in the class and only sixteen years old. She dragged herself to that class everyday and sat in that hot room for four hours at a time, in my mind that kind of determination is what I would want to look for in a prospective student at my university, rather than a meaningless number on a piece of paper.
