Industrialization Industrialization has historians recall it as a period of rapid industrial growth in the United States of America. Indeed it was a period of hope as many people were able to find jobs, and this led to the growth of a robust United States Economy. All these good that is related to industrialization from 1865came at the expense of the minority groups at the time. America has a long history of slavery. People were being bought and owned by the majority group as part of their workforce at home. America had and still has so many social inequalities as people of color came from the poor states south of the country (Mother Jones). They formed the bulk of the unskilled laborers who worked in these industries. They were paid very little at the time when they came to work in these industries. In this case, they couldn’t afford to rent houses in the city that they worked in. They thus resided in shanty houses just on the periphery of the city to be able to cope up to live…
Evaluating the Causes and Nature of Sexual Harassment at the Workplace Sexual harassment is a human rights violation and has severe costs to organisations and employees. Hersch (2015) note that above 75 nations have legislations that prohibit the vice and enact strict measures for the perpetrators. The impacts of sexual harassment at the workplace include reducing the individual and organisational performance, increasing turnover, and absenteeism. Shaw, Hegewisch, and Hess (2018) argue that currently, the MeToo movement has enhanced sexual harassment visibility and social prejudice at the workplace. Also, the movement describes the toll that these challenges have on women’s lives. To women, the effects of harassment are reflected in their dissatisfaction and overall wellbeing, including physical and mental problems. A concern, however, in sexual harassment is the focus on women, yet social prejudice also impacts men. Spencer and Barnett (2011) espouse that there are inadequate approaches to evaluate the harassment among men despite being targets of the assault. This paper critically evaluates the causes and nature of sexual harassment at the workplace for both men and women. Theoretical Framework The…

Social solidarity Social solidarity can be termed as the aspect of human socialization that emphasizes and reflects on the common bond that abides all group members and by which all members of the said group understand and value. On the verge of categorizing communities based on the division of labor in the society, Emile Durkheim developed two types of solidarity in the society mainly Mechanical and Organic Solidarity. These types of societies differ in how individuals relate and how labor is distributed in that society (Durkheim & Emile 2010). This review will highlight the two societal contexts as well as give a detailed explanation of the kind of society I live in while giving a detailed explanation about that societal context. In a society with mechanical solidarity, its unity and integration are derived from the equality of all members. All individuals are given the same accord. Everyone is connected through the allocation of similar work, lifestyle, training as well as societal teachings. This kind of society was best operational in a traditional context and can also be best implemented in…

Functionalist theorists Functionalists argue that there will always be some inequality in society and that this is functional for society. Explain the argument. Functionalist theorists compare society with how the human body functions. They view the society as composed of interrelated components, which must function in unison to ensure the bigger system worked. As a lens from which social inequality can be considered, functionalists point out manners in which inequality is operational for society. According to the functionalist perspective, the contrast between the ethnic and racial groups is mostly cultural (Gordon 1964). The group of minority members ends up being part of the large group; hence, their original distinct group identity lost. The perspective ignores that assimilation has a similar experience for entire ethnic groups, assuming the historical slavery legacy and discrimination in terms of race in our society, and ignoring that the group that is dominating is the one whose identity and culture is preferred. The minorities are ready to assume, and also assuming that social integration is an objective that is shared. One of the functionalism version discusses…
