There are so many interpretation of theory on the internet, and it is easy to get false information or interpretations that do not apply to our course. For example, some people have applied Tumins work to gender inequality. In the past, I have had students use this analysis and credit Tumin with it. However, Tumin did not directly address gender in the article we read in class. book required: sociological theory in the classical era 3rd edition ISBN-13: 978-1452203614 ISBN-10: 9781452203614 use page 101-144. This is the question to the essay 1. How does the debate between Davis and Moore and Tumin illustrate the key assumptions and weaknesses of Structural Functionalism? Outline what these assumptions and weaknesses are. Point to specific examples from the debate, class activity, and class discussion. How did we connect the class activity, where you had to choose 7 survivors, to Davis and Moore? What issues did this activity raise for their theory? 2. Explain the different types of suicide. Which type would Durkheim argue is most prevalent today and why? Remember to use the most relevant quotes from Durkheim to support your answer. 3. Durkheim argues that anomic suicide “results from man’s [people’s] activity’s lacking regulation and his consequent sufferings” (Edles & Appelrouth, 3rd Edition, p. 142). What, then, does Durkheim mean by the concept of anomie? Why is regulation a good thing? How does Durkheim apply the concept of anomie to extreme poverty and wealth? In what situations can poverty protect against anomie? cite from the book and from the powerpoint or document if using tumin isn’t hard to connect with other sociologist would also be fine like durkheim or Davis and Moores
