Answer:

A relative location is the position of something relative to another landmark. For example, you might say you're 50 miles west of Houston. An absolute location describes a fixed position that never changes, regardless of your current location. It is identified by specific coordinates, such as latitude and longitude.

I hope this is fine for you

Sociologists argue that what is considered deviant varies from culture to culture. Give an example of something that might be co
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

<u>One of the examples of behavior that would be considered deviant in one society and not in the other is the eating of certain animals. The examples are:</u>

  • Some societies in India consider the cow a sacred animal and never would consume beef.
  • Muslim societies do not eat pork meat.
  • Insects are considered a tasty snack in many countries, including Thailand, while it would be considered gross by many people from the west.
  • While some of the western European countries (like France and Belgium) have specialized butcher shops and restaurants for horse meat, eating it would most likely be considered taboo in the US or UK.
  • The most radical example is the eating of dogs, which occurs in some Asian countries, most notably China. There is even a whole festival for dog meat consumption in Yulin, and every year there are protests across the globe because of this event. Slaughtering dogs for meat consumption is prohibited in the US and plenty of other countries.

<u>With all of this, we can conclude that some food consumption can be seen as deviant in some parts of the world, while in others it is a normal occurrence and part of the every-day diet.</u>

Despite various taboos and laws, what we have to understand is that our connection to the animals is culturally constructed. The fact that people of the US feel closer to dogs, cats, and horses, but not to sheep and pigs, is not the fact supported by nature. There is nothing in nature itself and the nutrition of horses, insects, and various other species that prevents us to eat them. These deviances surrounding different meats are all culturally constructed. <u>This does not mean they are less real or that we should eat all the animals, just that we have to realize that our ways are no naturally more or less right than someone else’s.</u>

Write 2 statements (number each one) that demonstrate your intersectional analysis of systemic and institutional oppression. Und
krok68 [10]

Answer:

Institutional oppression is a form of systemic oppression, whereby an institution (e.g university of government) intentionally discriminate a group of people based on their identity, such as race and class.While another group benefits. These intentional disadvantages are supported and enforced by the institutions policies and laws, and supported by society.

Examples of the intersection between systemic and institutional oppression:

1. Biased policies used in hiring. A company may seek a candidate who will work 6 days a week and extra hours each week. This will result in little to no women being hired because of the potential that she might (if not already) have kids, thus unable to work long hours and weekends.

2. Institutional racism in the housing sector. Black individuals are denied home loans because they are assumed to be living in high risk neighborhoods (racial profiling), while their White counterparts are assumed to live in safe neighborhoods, thus are eligible for home loans
