Discuss how each of the two main approaches to understanding social problems would explain a social problem like recidivism?
padilas [110]

Explanation:Approaches to the Study of Social Problems

Social Structure as the Basic Unit of Analysis

The Person-Blame Approach

People generally understand social problems as some sort of pathology experienced

by individuals. This approach to understanding social problems is what Eitzen calls

the person-blame approach.

This approach tends to assume that universal norms exist. Behavior is deviant

depending on how much it strays from these norms.

Most people define a social problem as behavior that deviates from the norms and

standards of society.

The system is not only taken for granted; it has, for most people, an aura of sacredness

because of traditions and customs they associate with the system.

From the person-blame approach, those who deviate are seen as the source of trouble.

The obvious question observers ask is, why do these people deviate from norms?

Because most people view themselves as law abiding, they feel those who deviate do

so because of some kind of unusual circumstances: accidents, illness, personal defect,

character flaw, or maladjustment. For example, a person-blamer might argue that a

poor person is poor because he or she is not bright enough to succeed. In other words,

the deviant is the cause of his or her own problem.

The following are examples of perspectives that replay on person-blame approaches.

Cultural Deprivation

Eitzen et al. (2009:16) contends that people who blame the victim often cite

cultural deprivation as the "cause" of social problems. Culture is seen as the

"cause" of the problem. In other words, people who blame the victims see the

culture of the group with the problem as inferior and deficient when compared

to the culture of the dominant group in society.

For example, kids who don't do well is school have parents who don't speak

proper English or who are uneducated.

Recidivism

How successful are Prisons in rehabilitating criminals? Not VERY! Threefourths of the released criminals are re-arrested within four years. Recidivism  

NPTEL – Humanities and Social Sciences – Indian Society : Issues and Problems

Joint initiative of IITs and IISc – Funded by MHRD Page 2 of 4

refers to ex-offenders who are arrested for another criminal offense once they

have been released from jail.

Why are recidivism rates so high? The person-blame approach might argue

that the fault lies in the characteristics of the individual. Maybe they are

greedy. Perhaps they have higher than usual levels of aggression. Personblamers may also point out the ex-criminals lack of social controls (in Eitzen

et al. 2009:16).

Social Darwinism

The discoveries of Charles Darwin had a profound impact on other branches

of scientific inquiry. Charles Darwin, of course, is famous for his Theory of

Evolution. In the world of biology the species most fit survived while those

less fit eventually became extinct.

Social Darwinism is a distorted view of Darwin's theory. Many social

scientists, most notably Herbert Spencer, attempted to apply the logic of

Charles Darwin to the social world. The essence of the social Darwinist

perspective is that races or cultures, who occupied a "superior position" in the

social world, deserved that position because they were the most socially fit

(Eitzen et al. 2009:18).

According to Spencer "the poor are poor because they are unfit." The poor are

poor because they do not have the intellectual ability to be wealthy.

Spencer argued that "poverty is nature's way of 'excreting ... unhealthy,

imbecile, slow, vacillating, faithless members' of society in order to make

room for the fit" (Eitzen and Baca-Zinn, 1994:170).

Social Darwinists, therefore, oppose social programs because, they argue,

social programs perpetuate the existence of the unfit group who would

probably disappear in the absence of social welfare.

natulia [17]

Answer:

The most likely diagnosis is <u>Tourette's syndrome</u>.

Explanation:

Tourette's syndrome usually begins in childhood, has a chronic course and a dysfunctional or disabling character. The initial symptoms consist of motor tics of the head and face that subsequently spread progressively to the trunk and lower extremities, without having to fulfill the cephalocaudal progression of motor tics in all cases, and it is difficult to distinguish them primarily from a picture of transient tics, and one or more vocal tics, vocal tics may appear at a given moment, in isolation, and the same with multiple motor tics. Motor tics include, but are not limited to: grimacing, gesturing, blinking, eyebrow raising, neck twitching. In the case of vocal tics, these include: repetitive emission of sounds and words, throat clearing, screaming, various guttural sounds.

Daniel is a freshman at a college near his old high school. He comes home nearly every weekend but does not enjoy himself once h
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Daniel is going through something known as identity diffusion.

Explanation:

Identity is the essence of an individual in a way; it encompasses certain characteristics that make this person unique and different to others. One's identity tends to <em>develop completely during his/her teenage years. </em>

Identity diffusion occurs when a person has not yet formed his/her identity as a whole and has not yet "found" his/ herself as a unique person following a path.

Here are some main characteristics:

  • The individual has <em>not yet made any serious commitments</em>. We can see this in Daniel as he does not have strong feelings about his study enrollment or his grades.
  • They tend to be isolated. Daniel spends most of his time alone, either going online or shopping and tends to avoid social interactions, even getting mad at his parents and avoiding friends.
  • The individual can seem as an underachiever who does not care much about certain things. Daniel enrolled in courses he thought were easy, not looking to perform well or try to leave his comfort zone.
