To understand some of the illogical responses to death, social scientists have developed TMT, which stands for terror management theory.

<h3>What is terror management theory?</h3>

Terror management theory (TMT) is both a social and evolutionary psychology theory originally proposed by Jeff Greenberg, Sheldon Solomon, and Tom Pyszczynski and codified in their book The Worm at the Core: On the Role of Death in Life (2015).

Terror Management Theory (TMT) is a dual-defense model that explains how people protect themselves against concerns about death (mortality salience).

According to TMT, the specific manner in which people respond is dependent on whether the concerns are conscious or unconscious.

Terror management theory asserts that death fear (fear of annihilation) is buffered by self-esteem and beliefs in literal and symbolic immortality achieved through participation in the cultural system.

natulia [17]

Answer:

The answer is the Funcionalism

Explanation:

Its main objective is to explain society, collective and individual actions, from causalities, ie, functions. Thus society, or what is observed from this theory, is understood as an organism, composed of related organs and with specific functions. Formulated by Emile Durkheim, his interest was to understand what are the defining factors of a society, that is, what makes a society not just a collection of individuals.

ANEK [815]

Answer and Explanation:

The Constitution itself establishes a representative democracy, or republic, not a pure democracy. In that sense, I guess you could say it's "undemocratic," although that word seems to have connotations about the electoral process that aren't exactly accurate.

The framers of the Constitution were very concerned about a majority rule changing fundamental laws. While they made the Constitution a flexible document that provided for the possibility of amending, it is an extremely laborious task to do so. The idea is that no temporary majority can significantly affect the rights and protections of the citizenry.

To a large extent, that changed with one critical writing. In 1905, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. wrote the dissent in Lochner v. New York which established the concept of an "empty Constitution." That means that the prevailing legal theory to this day is that the Constitution does not in fact establish *anything* and in lieu of judicial precedent, the will of the people at any snapshot in time is effectively law. This is typically a leftist judicial outlook.

One of the biggest ironies of this decision is making it's way through the appellate courts right now: the California Prop 8 issue. Of course the leftists (rightfully) side with those who support gay marriage. However, if the case is to be decided in their favor, i.e. that a majority cannot vote away someone's right, it will be a repudiation of Holmesian doctrine. If the courts uphold the Holmesian standard, they will be forced to rule that the popular vote can, in fact, restrict rights of the people--in this case, the first amendment right of freedom of association.
