Ascribed statuses=positions an individual either inherits at birth or receives involuntarily in life Achieved statuses=positions that are earned or involve some efforts on the individual part Studies of isolated and institutionalized children point out the importance of intimate early social interaction in acquiring the basic human traits we take for granted Charles Horton Cooley=we develop a self-concept when we interact with others Looking-glass self= describe the process by which we develop a sense of self (Charles Horton Cooley coined the term) George Herbert Mead =we acquire a sense of self when we learn to take the role of the other Significant others= Meads term, meaning people who have significant influence on you such as parents, siblings, relatives, friends, colleagues, etc. Role taking- four stages to develop: imitation, playing, game, and generalized others stages. Piaget-the development of reasoning skills (sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational) Development of personality =Id, Ego, Superego by Freud. Id-the inborn drive for self gratification such as cries of hunger or pain; basic demanding needs and pleasure seeking aspect of our personality (food, safety, sex, etc.) Superego-the moral component of our personality. It is the conscience. It represents culture within us-the norms and values. It gives us sense of guilty when break social rules and pride when we follow them. It is our social self.

Discussion What are socialization and human nature (nature or nurture)? What is self and why is self the result of conversation between I and me based on Mead? Discuss the four stages of role taking imitation, play, game, and generalized others based on Mead. How does Charles Horton Cooleys Looking Glass Self illustrate the formulation of a persons self-concept?

If birth unchecked, population growth will surpass the food supply. Then the consequences will be famines, starvation, wars, and diseases. The New Malthusians=population follows an exponential curve. It is doubled during roughly same interval of time and then suddenly accelerates Anti-Malthusians=population do not just reproduce until there is nothing left to go around. Growth rates tend to balance over time. No evidence feasible to verify Malthus theory. Demographic transition=population will transit through three stages from the long run: 1) high birth and death rates, slow grow; 2) death rate starts declining while birth rate remains high, high growth rate; 3) birth rate starts to decline while death rate continues to be low, leading to low growth rate. This theory is based on the population experience in some European countries. Alienation= a shift from Gemeinschaft (the sense of community, traditional social control to the) Gesellshaft (the impersonality, indifferent, modern society. Community=a place where people identify with, where they sense that they belong and that others care what happens to them. Concentric zone model=cities that are formed surrounding one center Sector model=cities that contain several sectors Multiple-Nuclei model=cities that combine the characteristics of concentric and sector models with multiple centers and sectors. Monocentric city= a city with single centric center that consists of central city, suburbs and urban fringe Polycentric city=a city with multiple centric centers that include central city, inner suburbs, and urban fringe; between inner suburbs and urban fringe lie out suburbs where there are many mini-cities. Inner suburbs=place immediately surrounding the central city Urban fringe=the most external place surround a city Cosmopolites=city=s students, intellectuals, professionals, musicians, artists, and entertainers, coming to downtown for opportunities and benefits. Haves and have nots=the rich and the poor Population pyramid=a graphic representation of a population structure by age and sex Population projection= estimates for future population. Population increase=the difference between birth rate and death rate plus net migration Demographic equation = birth - death + net migration Crude birth rate=the ratio between number of live birth and total population in a given area, Zero population growth=a condition in which women bear only enough children to reproduce population Population shrinkage=the process by which a country=s population becomes smaller due to declining birth rate and low immigration TOPICS OF DISCUSSION 1 What is the Demographic Transition Theory? 2 Describe the stages of the demographic transition 3 What are the three components of population changes? 4 What is the demographic equation/balancing equation? 5 What is the Malthusian theory? 6 Describe the US urban growth patterns. 7 Describe the models of urban growth. 8 What information can you get from a population pyramid     PAGE  PAGE 13  "#78S Z 9 ; ?}~)*KL]^ǼǼǸ{p{hhhoZOJQJhoZOJQJ^JjhoZOJQJU^J hoZjhoZUhoZOJQJ^JjhoZUmH sH hoZmH sH hoZh-k hm5\hmhmmH sH jhmUmH sH h)mH sH h@Q5>*mH sH h)h)5>*mH sH ( !"@Sm S Z  s -@_Z4$a$4Z }~+>?_"q ` gdoZ$gdoZ$a$gdoZgdoZq?F<|ABdegdoZgdoZjk9@AUV?@^hrBgdoZ ) @ `z'L,0(59>rBFgdoZgdoZ999]::::::::&;';;;3<4<<<<<=====gdoZgdoZ & @ `z'L,0(59>rBgdoZ===2=i===l?|??K@@TAA BlBBC_CCCDDDE HgdoZ ) @ `!L,0(59>rBFgdoZgdoZEE+FcFF6GGG=HXHII J J J J*J1JdJJ$ & @ `!L,0(59>rBa$gdoZ & @ `!L,0(59>rBgdoZgdoZ ) @ `!L,0(59>rBFgdoZJJJKL LMLL%MzMM9NNOaOOPPP1QQRTRR SiSS & @ `!L,0(59>rBgdoZ3KLLVVpWqWsWtWWWWW~XXZZCbcccccc>dDdeeHfQffuh}jk8km0mn7pBp?rrrrrrFtUtuٮهٮههههz hr5\ hraJ hrCJhphrCJhrCJmH sH jhrCJUmH sH hr5CJ\aJh&hr5hrhrmH sH jhrUmH sH hrCJaJhmCJaJhoZhoZ5CJ\aJhoZCJaJ0S4T UUVVVVVTVUVVVVV;WrBgdrgdoZ & @ `!L,0(59>rBgdoZX0XXXXZZZP[[\I\\\(]g]]^__`a8aaa & @ `!L,0(59>rBgdr$ & @ `!L,0(59>rBa$gdraCbDbEbFbQbRbjbbbbEcFcGcHcIccccc>d?dFd$ & @ `!L,0(59>rBa$gdrgdrgdr & @ `!L,0(59>rBgdrFdHfIfWff)gjggguhh3iisjkklmvmnnoo5p6p7pgdr & @ `!L,0(59>rBgdr7pBpCpppqqqqqq>r?rdrrrrEtFtUtt/uuuu @ `!gdr$ @ `!a$gdrgdrgdru6vv1ww%xx%y|yy)zzzS{||||$|%|W||}}}}}gdrgdr @ `!gdruy|$|}}}}}}}}}}}~~~~~[\opԈՈQjlދnq|}ɿɿɨɝɇɨɕ h5~bh@Qh@QCJaJ h@QCJh@QCJaJh@Q5CJ\aJhJh@QB*ph h@Q5\ h@Qjh@QUh@Qjh@QUmH sH h@QmH sH h@Q5mH sH h_eNh@Q5mH sH  hraJhr/}}}~ ~+~z~{~~KLMqDx `bԄ<z{$gd@Q$a$gd@Qgd@Q{|}~߇;<jk܈ Rl݋ދ"$a$gd@Qgd@Qgd@Q"e,ЍK׎ Dɏ/;ђ\gd@Q$a$gd@Qgd@Q e.k Lnopq| *jkgd@Q$gd@Q 0d^`0gd@Qgd@Q$a$gd@Q()*jyzOPab·÷ַ׷jklnoqrtuwx~ƾݴݴݨݤhm(h- h- 0Jjh- 0JUh$ !)O^rC$y@/yH*񄴽)޵߻UDb`}"qۋJחX^)I`nEp)liV[]1M<OP6r=zgbIguSebORD۫qu gZo~ٺlAplxpT0+[}`jzAV2Fi@qv֬5\|ʜ̭NleXdsjcs7f W+Ն7`g ȘJj|h(KD- dXiJ؇(x$( :;˹!
