Explanation:
In Chinua Achebe's novel 'Things Fall Apart", the story revolves around the Igbo culture in Africa, specifically on the character of Okonkwo. The story deals with themes of culture, tradition, Christianity, conformity, etc.
In Chapter 3, we see that Okonkwo's father Unoka went to the Oracle to consult why his crops failed even though he made sacrifices. It was then that he was told his crops failed despite his sacrifices because he was lazy and had planted on a wasted land.
Okonkwo's prosperity was a result of his desire to be unlike his lazy father. He did not want to be deemed alike to his father and thus, went to the wealthy Nwakibie to ask for 400 yam seeds.
In Igbo culture, yam was considered to be the king of the crops. It was assumed that a man who can feed yam to his family the whole year is a man who has succeeded and is hardworking.
Answer and Explanation:
Sociology studies the interactions between individuals and societies, as well as the processes that maintain or change such societies. To do so, it takes different aspects and institutions into consideration, since they may all affect those interactions to some extent: religion, education, race, gender, age, etc. Having that in mind, we can easily think of three topics a sociologist might investigate when studying poverty:
1. Why different racial groups are more or less poor than others;
2. If religion is connected to seeking or not material wealth;
3. Why uneducated people have a harder time getting out of poverty.
The use of speech to exchange of informal ideas, information etc.
