Why were the American archaeologists of the first half of the twentieth century primarily interested in culture history? What’s

meant by a historical explanation of events? How is this different from a scientific explanation, or is it? What was Hannah’s point when she quotes Indiana Jones:"If you want the truth, try the Philosophy Department."?

Explanation:

The kind of archaeology that was practiced mainly by the American archaeologist in the early to mid-twentieth century is to explore the culture history. The culture history "explains" the differences or the changes over time in the frequencies of the artifacts by postulating the diffusion of several ideas between the nearby cultures or the migration of the people who had different beliefs and mental templates for the artifact styles.

It is different from scientific explanation as scientific explanation of new archaeology needs to be more  scientific and more anthropological. All the hypothesis should be tested.

Hannah meant by saying that to know the truth we should look at the Philosophy Department is that you will get all your answer to the question in the philosophy department.

Lorico [155]

Answer:

the main difference lies between the pension scheme.

Explanation:

If an individual is considered an employee (non-cadre), there would be less expectation from him in the eyes of people. For example, if an individual has a large workload, he or she may get paid an overtime fee for that but if one is considered an executive (cadre), more is expected from them. However, a cadre has a better retirement plan as compared to a non-cadre.

Explanation:

Makers are one of the sub-group of VALS that are motivated by the self-expression and sufficiency in whatever things they are engaged in.

Compare and contrast Davis and Moore’s functionalist perspective of social stratification with Mosca’s conflict perspective of s
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

<h3>The comparison and contrast of Davis and Moore’s functionalist perspective of social stratification with Mosca’s conflict perspective of social stratification lies on the concept of social position and power.</h3>

Explanation:

Davis and Moore's functionalist perspective of social stratification and Mosca’s conflict perspective of social stratification all emphasize on the presence of a power structure in a society which directly corresponds to the  position of an individual.  They all believed that society operates according to the social needs and that every individual performs their tasks accordingly.

The line of distinction between Davis and Moore's functionalist perspective and Mosca’s conflict perspective lies in the nature of men. Mosca believes that man is evil and dominating by nature and that compels him/her to misuse his position. He brings out the authority and power of the ruling class as an example to this argument. He argues that people in good position will eventually become more powerful as men are ambitious and selfish. They will gradually exploit people from lower position and use their power for their own personal gains.

While on the other hand, Davis and Moore argue that the greater the role of an individual is, the greater should be the reward. They illustrate the idea that people with bigger and greater roles should be given more importance because of their greater contributions to the society. Their perspective of social stratification emphasize that not everyone can perform the exclusive task of the doctors, therefore those who could perform such complicated tasks should be paid and rewarded more. Davis and Moore do not consider misuse of position and power by people of great influence.

In my opinion, Davis and Moore’s functionalist perspective of social stratification is more applicable and realistic. The fact that those who worked hard deserves a reward is a universal doctrine. These people spent a lot of effort and time before acquiring the position they are in today. Their effort and hard work should be rewarded greatly as they will contribute significantly to the society. Though, this perspective does not bring into account the chances of misuse of power and position, such elements can be controlled through efficient law and state control.
