Explain collective action problems and free riding, and how groups get around these problems through benefits of participation (i.e., solidary benefits and purposive benefits), coercion, and selective incentives.
collective action problem; situation in which members of a group would benefit by working together to produce some outcome, but each individual is better off refusing to cooperate and reaping benefits from those who do the work; one individuals efforts will not make a big difference; individual is better off free riding, can not do any work but still enjoy successes of group; even when people agree something would be good, cooperation isn't easy or automatic
free riding; relying on others to contribute to a collective effort and not participating on ones own behalf, but still benefiting from the groups successes
mechanism to promote cooperation: benefits from participation, coercion, selective incentives
soldiery benefits-satisfaction derived from the experience of working with like-minded people, even if the groups efforts do not achieve the desired impact
purposive benefit- satisfaction that comes from working to achieve a common goal
coercion- requiring participation; ex. labor unions require union dues as condition
selective incentives- benefits only given to members of an interest group

When sociologists discuss the effects of religion and the economy on sexuality, their level of interest is at the Macro level.
Sociology is the study of how society affects individuals as well as how individuals influence society. Sociology is described in the dictionary as "the systematic study of society and social interaction." The Latin term socius (companion) and the Greek word logos (speech or reason), which when combined signify "reasoned speech concerning companionship," are the roots of the word "sociologists."
Numerous techniques are employed by sociologists to examine society and social behavior. They research how people evolve into groups, cultures, organizations, social institutions, and processes, then apply these to the real world. The majority of sociologists are employed by consulting service companies, colleges and universities, local, state, and federal governments. To address social issues and create public policy, educators, legislators, managers, and social workers use sociological studies.
