Explain and discuss the relationship between Prestige, Power and Income when examining Social Stratification.
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Social Stratification

She's from the wrong side of the tracks. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. This degree is my ticket to the world!

What do these phrases mean? They are referencing social standing or social stratification. Social stratification is a method by which societies categorize and rank members in a hierarchy.

Stratification is a key concept in sociology. Early societies didn't rank members. As societies evolved, they began to classify their members. Some categories, like landowners, received promotions. Others, like wage earners, seemed to be demoted.

Today, all societies use social stratification, though some countries are more stratified than others. The systems and the beliefs behind those systems are deep-rooted. Stratification systems impose inequalities that persist for generations.

Social Stratification in the U.S.

For example, in the United States, it's fairly easy to detect the 'haves' from the 'have-nots.' Today's Rockefellers still enjoy the wealth and status gained by family members in the late 19th century. On the other hand, some families of former slaves still struggle.

The U.S. stratification system is based on socioeconomic status or SES. SES is a categorization formula that considers a person's income, education, and occupation. Our society places a higher value on:

Wealth

Longer periods of education

Occupations that require advanced degrees

The sum of these factors is used to determine a person's general social class. Social class is important because the U.S. uses a class system of stratification. A class system is a stratification system in which a person's social status is based on achievement. For the most part, that means Americans can choose or earn social status. They are not locked into a particular status from birth. Class systems allow social mobility, which is movement up or down the social hierarchy. This is a unique characteristic of the class system. This equality of opportunity is often referred to as the 'American Dream.'

For example, the Rockefeller family owes their fortune to John D. Rockefeller. John was the son of a traveling peddler who'd been run out of town and accused of crimes. He was forced to drop out of high school. He set his mind to business and executed a series of timely oil deals. By age 38, his company controlled 90% of the oil refined in the U.S.

1. What were some of the tensions that existed between the British and French during the colonial era?
rusak2 [61]

1. The British and the French were both growing powers in Western Europe. Traditionally the two were not in the best of relations, and there were constant tensions between them, often resulting in military conflicts as well.

There were numerous reasons as two why the two empires disliked each other, especially during the colonial era.

A major reason was the competition for gaining new territory, be it in the new world, or in the old world. Both empires had big aspirations and wanted to control as much territory as possible. This led to them standing on each other's way, so the conflicts were somewhat inevitable.

Both empires wanted to gain access to as many resources as possible in order to gain more wealth, and again they were standing on each other's way all the time.

Another reason was also the religion, as the British became more liberal and largely distanced themselves from the Pope, while the French were in close ties with the Pope.

2. The transcontinental railroad was revolutionary for the development of the United States. This construction enabled quick movement of people and goods over large territories. The East Coast and the West Coast became directly connected, and in between them was the interior of the country which became connected with both.

This made the migration of the people much more ease. Because the goods were transported quickly and easily, the people started to produce more, which resulted in economic boost. Since the economy was thriving, and the transportation and movement became easy and quick, lot of new cities were established in the western part of the country.

3. The population density in North America is not the same or similar everywhere. The continent tends to often be divided by the 100th meridian, or rather east and west of it when it comes to the population density.

The reason for this division is the big difference of the population density east and west of this imaginary line.

East of the 100th meridian, the population density is high. There are much more cities, towns, agglomerations, all which are very close to each other and have large populations. West of this line the settlements are much more sparsely distributed, and they also tend to have lower populations.

There are two basic reasons for this disproportion. One reason is that the East Coast was settled first, so all along the coast there were lot of cities that were established and later well developed and prosperous, while in meantime the west was still unknown. Another reason are the geographic factors. The East tends to have better climate, the topography in general is suitable for settlements, and the landscape is naturally covered with dense vegetation. The West on the other hand, has much more mountains, which are also very high. There are deserts, as well as several semi-arid areas. In lot of places there is lack of natural resources, especially water, and the climate tends to be more extreme.

4. When the United States managed to gain control west of its initial colonies on the eastern coast, the government immediately tried to motivate the people to start migrating toward the west. The goal of the government was simple, to move as much people as possible westwards so that it can gradually form strongholds, have dominant population, and use the natural resources of the area.

The US government tried to achieve its goal with the creation of Manifest Destiny. Manifest Destiny was an act through which the people that wanted to move toward the western lands were getting large portions of land for either were small fees, or even for free in some cases. The only condition was that the people that apply for land have to develop it agriculturally, make a permanent dwelling, and live there for at least five years.

This was seen as a huge opportunity by lot of people, so there was an abundance of people moving in, especially the new immigrants. This resulted in rapid development of the west, and it quickly became one of the largest agricultural regions in the world. Also, the region experienced rapid demographic boom, as well as economic progress.

In a paragraph of 125 words, discuss the relationship between Balkan history and geography.
PtichkaEL [24]
Balkan Peninsula is a headland of Greece, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Romania, Albania and Hungary under Ottoman Turkish rule. It is a geographic area in a southeastern part of Europe. The country takes the name from Serbian-Bulgarian border to the Black Sea’s Balkan Mountains. The geography was rotating around its three characteristics: its mountains, its rivers, and its area’s situation. The Peninsula itself is a triangular shape with a broad northern borderline, straitening to a tip as it extends to the south surrounded by the Black, the Aegean, the Mediterranean and the Adriatic Seas; they served each other as barriers and access points. Balkan is different from other peninsulas, it is not being secluded from nearby regions. Most of the ethnic groups in the region were entering in the access points of Romania in the northeast, Ukraine in the steppe regions, Danube and Hungarian in the northwest. Balkan is surrounded by 3 sides of water; the neighboring regions to the east, west, or south, the narrow channels of Bosphorus and the Dardanellas which are the natural passage between Anatolia and Balkans, and beyond Asia. Balkan is unsurprisingly a region that has been intersections for traffic accessing to and from all these destinations.
