ACT College Social Norms & Structures in Institutions Discussion
I’m stuck on a Social Science question and need an explanation.
1st question:
How much do the norms (folkways and mores) and social structures within
these social institutions influence, guide or control your behaviors? Do
they do so more for some people than others? Who and why? Who has more
human agency within our society? Be concise: one paragraph. Cite your
sources.
2nd question:
We just reviewed several important social institutions, including
family, work, education, politics and govt., and religion. Which social
institution do you think is most important, in terms of overall society
and affecting everyday behavior? Why? Justify your answer and
incorporate material reviewed in this module into your answer. Be
concise: one paragraph maximum. Cite your sources.
