SOCIOLOGY

THEORETICAL APPROACHES IN FAMILY

1. STRUCTURAL- FUNCTIONAL THEORY 2. SOCIAL-CONFLICT THEORY AND FEMINIST THEORY 3. SYMBOLIC-INTERACTION AND SOCIAL-EXCHANGE THEORY

HETERONORMATIVITY

1. The belief that heterosexuality is the natural, normal and ideal form of attraction and relationship building 2. Heterosexuality relies on the idea that there are just two binary definers. These genders are seen to be opposite and complementary to one another 3. This gender binary is also a sex binary. It relies on the idea that they will be cisegnder

WHY CARE ABOUT SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE?

1. builds social cohesion, solidarity in times of crisis 2. pluralistic spaces attract diversity of experiences and backgrounds (age, sexuality, race, gender, ability)

BENEFITS OF NEIGHBOURHOOD HOUSES

1. relationships with neighbours: newcomers to canada feel supported 2. friendship formation: more variety of programs engaged in, more likely to make friends through participation 3. social capacity: more variety of programs engaged in, greater increase in social skills such as communication

4 CHARACTERISTICS OF SOCIOLOGICAL THINKING

1. seeing the general in the particular 2. seeing society in our everyday lives 3. seeing the strange in the familiar 4. seeing marginality and crisis

2018 8.7% 2017 9.5% For children, 2018 8.2%, reducing since 2012 when 15%

RACISM AND COVID DEATHS

42% of covid deaths are black people (double their share of the population, 3x higher than white people) Indigenous communities are the second hardest hit Black neighbourhoods in toronto hit hardest

CANADA'S POVERTY RATE

9-12%

FICTITIOUS COMMODITIES

= dangers of commodification Ex. labour, land, money - Never created to be bought and sold/traded on market - Social welfare systems and now current emergency social welfare measures are what allow fiction that labour is a true commodity accessible

INDIVIIDUAL RACISM

An individuals' racist assumptions, beliefs or behaviours and is "a form of racial discrimination that stems from conscious (overt, polite) and unconscious personal prejudice" - Connected to the broader socio-economic histories and processes - emerge from a society's fundamental beliefs - Often supported and reinforced by systemic racism

SYMBOLIC-INTERACTION AND SOCIAL-EXCHANGE THEORY

Analyse the family at the micro-level looking at how individual's experiences shapes family life

5 COUNTRIES ANALYSIS

Burkina Faso (young, poor country, lower life expectancy, higher fertility levels), China (where it began), Brazil, Italy (smaller country than China, large older population), Canada - highest CDR in italy, lowest in Burkina Faso - brazil, china, BF CDR less than Canada - with Canada's CDR but same population sizes would expect more death rates in every country except Italy

SOCIOLOGICAL IMAGINATION

C. Wright Mill's term for the ability to see private troubles as public issues - can understand root causes of personal challenges by looking at world - intricate connection between personal narrative and historical narrative people live out a biography within a historical sequence e.x your job loss in context of covid-19 global recession

COVID SES PREDICTIONS

Expert predictions anticipate a considerable higher burden of disease and economic impact on disadvantaged populations and countries in global south

FACTORS IMPACTING POPULATION SIZE

FERTILITY MORTALITY MIGRATTION

WHY DO WE SEE SES DIFFERENCES IN HEALTH?

FUNADMENTAL CAUSE THEORY

BINARIES OF OLD AGE

Homogeneity (65+) vs. heterogeneity (2+ generations) Process of disease vs. process of aging Life expectancy vs. healthy life expectancy One acute problem vs. multiple chronic conditions Older people source of problem vs. source of solution Population aging as apocalypse vs. societal achievement Wrath of boomers vs. societal opportunity Poor pension planning vs. unprecedented wealth in equity Epidemic of dementia vs. healthier than ever (70 is the new 60)

WHY DO WE SEE RACE/ETHNICITY DIFFERENCES?

INSTITUTIONAL RACISM STRUCTURAL INEQUALITY CULTURAL RACISM EXPERIENCES OF DISCRIMINATION

WHAT IS THE GOAL OF PRODUCTION

Make a profit from selling commodities in a competitive free marketing = surplus value

ANTI-VICE CRUSADERS SEX WORK

COVID IMPACTS ON OPIOID CRISIS RISKS

(a) Impacts on drug trade Closed borders and interrupted supply chains have changed drug markets o Drugs crops (coca, poppies) have dropped in value decreasing production (and increasing prices) o Drug supplies are unpredictable and unreliable, changing the potency and purity of the drug supply o The BC Coroner's office report extreme concentrations of fentanyl in post-mortem toxicology reports (b) Service closures Front line services have been forced to reduce or suspend services o Impacts on food security, social/health service access, access to harm reduction o Removes source of stability and increases stress, potentially leading to increased/higher drug use (c) Public health measures Considerable challenges for marginalized PWUD to engage in physical distancing o Access to information, PPE, sanitation/hand washing facilities o Homelessness makes physical distancing extremely challenging (they don't have a home??) o If you do socially distance, more likely to use alone, so might decline available supervised services and more like to die of OD

VANCOUVER BROTHELS

- 100+ brothels in chinatown, gastown were operated by women and some men known as keepers 1880s-1930s - Brothels were embedded in unequal relations of gender, class ,race and space - Some women combined it with other jobs like waitressing - Some women worked in brothels, some worked alone or in groups of 2-3, - Early 1900s, 'cribs' that employed chinese canadian women (lowest end of sex work sector) - Bernie stewart white, opened first brothel in vancouver 1830 - Marie gomex 1902 vancouver, brothel catered to spanisH sailors

- Division of labour more equal because they negotiate the work they want to do - More likely to have chosen family - social support - more resilient

DRAMATURGY

- Erving Goffman - assumes life is a dramatic performance - you are actor tot audience in social situations - display a series of masks to others, adapted too who we interact with - no true self

RACE AND ETHNICITY TRENDS IN HEALTH

- FIRST AND WORST: visible minorities experience earlier onset and greater severity of disease - NON-EQUIVALENCE: similar exposure known to impact disease produce different outcomes OR things that are protective against disease (ex. education) are not as protective for POC

CONSUMER BEHAVIOUR DURING COVID

- Generational impact on consumption attitudes and behaviour - Less consumption on regular every day clothes + rise on hoarding - More online purchasing - Greater emphasis on collective good and environmental stewardship

DIVISION OF LABOUR

- Married women do on average 2x that husbands do whether they are employed or not (or earn more, actually if earn more tend to do even more) - University interviewed students seek equality in relationships, but few couples succeed in division of labour in heterosexual relationships because of old rigid gender expectations that externally define how things should operate within the family

TRANS INTERACTIONS WITH HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS UNDER COVID

- More likely to report being in fair or poor health - More fear of receiving substandard medical treatment - Limited capacity of healthcare facilities means delayed access to gender affirming surgeries or inadequate FU post-surgery correlated wit greater likelihood of suicidial thoughts + attempts

WOMEN RETURNING TO WORK

- Not returning to work as quickly as men are - Women underutilized greater than men (working half than regular hours, looking for jobs, layed off) - Women also feeling pressured in terms of childcare and education = fewer women returning to their old jobs even if jobs is there

POSITIVES OF COVID AND FAMILY

- Often think of family as a haven from the outside world (support, love, financial support) - Studies show stressors from outside world come into the family and feel detached from family - Comments on how covid has given people more time so people feel closer, like they get to know each other again

READING: KARL POLANYI AND THE POWER OF IDEAS

- Opposed idea of Social naturalism: laws of market same as self-regulatory natures of nature Cynical about economists fallacy, self-regulating market was utopian - Markets are necessary but by treateing necessities of social existence as a commodity, threatened by market principles. Should be controlled by social and political institutions. Ex. education, healthcare, housing, social security - Free market cannot exist. Human economy is embedded everywhere in society, government inevitably involved even tho people dent it. Can be no self-regulating market - deregulation/reregulation set of rule that provided gov with protection for the financial sector to engage in predatory lending and a huge expansion in dangerous speculation - Double movement: destabilizing consequences of changing market lead to countervailing movements by other groups in society. - Reduce the role of politics in civic and social life.

BIRTH RATE CHANGES WITH COVID-19 IN CANADA

- People might not be meeting their future partners because of social distancing - Unions delayed (i.e. marriages) - contraception makes it unlikely that birth rates would increase as a result of quarantine - worries of finances and education - less access to fertility treatments

SES TRENDS IN HEALTH

- People with higher SES have better health outcomes across different diseases for most measures of SES (incomes, wealth education,) - Relationships between SES and health tend to be spatially distributed (neighbourhoods) - Places that have more inequality have worse outcomes for all levels of SES (relative differences in a geographic space) - Relationships between SES and health follows a gradient (incremental increases of SES and health i.e. positively correlated) therefore more unequal countries have worse health outcomes

SES AND HEALTH TRENDS IN CANADA

- There is a gradient of SES and health in Canada - Highest incomes = longer life expectancy - Inverse gradients when looking at negative outcomes: suicide deaths separated by sex and gender, more suicides seen with lower SES

SOCIALIZATION OF AGE

- age as a hierarchy - old people fragile - ageing negative - at institutional, societal and individual levels

DEMOGRAPHICS IN RESEARCH

- allows research across different characteristics to address issues related to a group

NATION-STATES

- are not just territorial bodies, but symbolic bodies - Symbolic boundaries can be imposed in order to justify the fortification of geographical borders against racialized others

POLICE BRUTALITY IN THE MEDIA

- blames on individuals - Blaming on bad apples misses the point of systemic racism, rooted in police structures not the individual

WHY LOOK AT DEMOGRAPHICS?

- by looking at certain factors (i.e. age, gender) can identify patterns in society - help policy makers

HOW MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS CAN FIGHT FOR PPE WORKERS RIGHTS

- campaign for their organization to purchase ethically - stay informed about fair medical trade: the fair trade movement applied to the context of medical equipment. The goal is to modify the sourcing practices of large organizations that purchase medical equipment, aLinks to an external site. nd ensuring they take steps to assess the rights and labour conditions of the people making the products - write to industry leaders

MIGRATION CHANGES WITH COVID-19

- can be seen away from hubs for tourism - Slower growths in cities as more families consider moving to rural/suburban areas - Access to health services allows weaker and more marginalized groups to have treatment

WHY SOCIOLOGICAL THINKING DURING COVID-19?

- corrective actions can save lives - populations-level health outcomes ex. indigenous mental health, blacks disproportionately affected by covid - socio-cultural outcome ex. gendered unpaid work - global and local health inequalities - social and political change

AGE STRUCTURE AND PANDEMIC

- countries with similar size but different age structure see different rates of mortality - older age - intergenerational families (italy) - co-residence - commuting - more religious groups (korea) - mapping of age related spatial clustering can improve forecasting - young age structure may be a protective factor (africa)

RE-CLOSETING

- covid means forced to move back home but haven't come out to family - Psychologically harmful - Associated with depression, anxiety and suicidality - Can happen to elders who enter care homes where their identity are discriminated against

NEW ZEALAND SEX WORK CVOID

- federal anti-prostitution bill C-36 since 2014 - difficulty leaving industry and seeking help from police, hard to find work elsewhere with criminal record - decriminalization in NZ (+ 2 states in Australia, south wales and queensland) in 2003 = workers rights

DATING WITH COVID

- feeling of social distance when living alone and single - Don't have same way of informally connecting in person - Even if on dating app, nowhere to go next (lack of social infrastructure to develop a relationship)

GENDER TRENDS IN HEALTH

- females/women live longer than men and transgender individuals -Sex/gender differences in major causes of death: males more likely to die from cancer, respiratory and heart diseases and injuries and accidents, women more from Alzheimer's', influenzas, breast cancer and circulatory diseases - Females/women more likely to be diagnosed with mood disorders - Females/women utilize more health services

COVID MOST AFFECTED SECTORS

- food and accommodation - retail and wholesale - business services and administration - manufacturing - in Canada, female dominated service sector jobs first to disappear - domestic nanny jobs also vulnerable - women who kept jobs still more likely to be in high risk jobs

VANCOUVER CONNECTION AND ENGAGEMENT RESEARCH

KLEINENBERG

- heat wave in Chicago 1995 - Protective factor: social/community relationships - Increased risk: social isolation, not able to recognize signs, solo living - Highest deaths and lowest deaths equally in low income, poor, violent, black (and latin american) neighbourhoods - The difference was social infrastructure - Empty lots, broken infrastructure (englewood) vs. well maintained parks and community organizations (auburn gresham) - Social infrastructure discouraged or encouraged interactions and mutual support - Economic development as a solution if everyone, not just wealthy, share in the gains - Civic solution: more voluntary associations that build community ex. Gardening club - Technocratic solution: enhance security + increase circulation of people and goods

HETERONORMATIVITY EXAMPLE

- heteronormativity present at institutional levels ex. gendered washrooms

CFR BRAZIL VS NIGERIA

- higher in Brazil because higher ages even though same populations size

THE ECONOMIC PROBLEM

- identify unseen poverty - collect race based data, demographics data to mitigate inequalities

INDOOR VS. OUTDOOR SEX WORK

- in canada, 85% iindoors - 10-15% street based (visible work)

COVID GENERATIONALIZED

- increases generational divide - baby boomers hoardiing - millenials selfish - gen x know how to social isolate - boomer remover = baby boomers dying - new generation speculated 9 months from now - corona generation = gen c, gen p, gen v, illenials, quarantines, genzoomers?? - pitting young against old people increases intergenerational conflict

HEALTH FOR SOCIOLOGISTS

- individual health - population health - healthcare institutions - health inequalities

HOMOPHOBIA AND TRANSPHOBIA

- individual traits (typically thought to be due to a lack of knowledge) - solution would be anti-homophobia anti-transphobia training

FORMAL AND INFORMAL RULES FOR INTERACTIONS

AGE AND CFR

- low age, CFR low - CFR increases around 45-50 y o and highest at 80 y o >

5 COUNTRIES STANDARDIZED

- low death rates in China once standardized using CDR in Canada - italy would have less death with canada's age structure, brazil/china almost 50% more - Burkina Faso has 1/5ths the number of deaths we'd expect if same age distribution as Canada

PERIPHERAL

- lower income - global south - poorer countries in Asia, Africa, South America, typically have history of colonization

COVID AND SES

- lower income neighbourhoods, more COVID - lower SES means less secure ands high risk jobs, less resources to prevent and deal with infection, less able to social distance/work from home - intersectional i.e. SES gradient often racialized

WAYS FASHION BRANDS HELP DURING COVID

- make masks, gowns, PPE - donates money - make sanitizer - donate ICU units

WHO MADE POLICE RECORDS FOR SEX WORKERS?

- manufactured by powerful white settler colonial state agents to legitimize and justify ever-growing police budgets and policing practices

COVID AND RACE

- marginalized groups more likely to die - cannot assume problem is biological (biological essentialism false, not differences) - cannot contribute to "misbehaviour" - need context to avoid impression that social problem is racial in nature

LTC LABOUR FORCE

- marginalized, racialized, immigrant, women - casualized - under-paid - work at multiple sites to make FT work

THE THREAT THAT MARKETS POSE TO SOCIETY

- markets necessary and important - when markets are allowed to dominate society, they threaten important social institutions that bind us as a collective - He wanted free markets - When markets insufficiently regulated, markets take essential things and commodify them in corrosive ways - Can result in human suffering - Markets do not value the things that societies need and doesn't distribute them according to those needs

MAKING PPE

- massive slave and labour abuse - less concern for ethics - female inmates in Hong Kong work night shifts to make masks - lockdown means factories supposed to reduce production by 50% but they did not - Top Glove in Malaysia accused of withholds wages, confiscating passports, debt bondage, forced labour - workers laid off with orders cancelled (even when clothes already made or fabrics purchased) - equally vulnerable LA undocumented garment workers, immigrants

COVID AND GENDER

- men die more than women - sex differences: genes, hormones, immune strength - gender differences: socialized, toxic masculinity

WOMEN POVERTY

- more likely than men to be low income - more likely to work PT precarious jobs, contract work wtc - more likely to reduce hours or miss work due to domestic responsibilities - 20% wage gap, gradually decreased around 2014 - immigrant and indigenous women affected most = feminization and facilitation of poverty - more likely to work pink collar jobs

HOW AGING IMPACTS SOCIETY

- more people are living longer to old age and in old age - policy actions can harm aging/elderly populations - contribute to family, community, society

SOCIAL ROLE THEORIES AND GENDER

DIFFERENT FAMILY AND HOUSEHOLD FORMATIONS

- multigenerational households - queer and LGBTQS2+ families - chosen families

ANTI-ASIAN SENTIMENTS

- not treated well, but treated as cheap labour, not allowed to vote, own land etc. - cultural and moral deficiencies - also stoked fear and panic about he epidemiological threats - unsanitary, carriers of disease

THE WORKING POOR IN CANADA

- of people living in poverty, 1/6 in Canada work year round full time 7.6% in canada are the working poor: between 18-64 years old, not students, live independently, earn at least 3000/year and earn below income threshold - More likely to have less stable jobs, less insurance/benefits, - Also more likely to see hours and wages reduced during pandemic -- 2x higher working poor for immigrants -- 2.1x higher indigenous -- 2.2x higher working poor for black -- 1.5x arab/south asian/west asian -- 1.5x east asian/SE asian - Canada has a higher rate of working poor compared to other countries because minimum wage is close to the poverty line

VIOLENCE AND CONTROL

- one partner seeks control over the other - Violence = tool to maintain control - In heterosexual relationships, usually man seeking control because of gender inequality in society - the key to controlling is isolation (out of contact of friends, family members, keep them away from work, show up at work unannounced, monitoring their movements), control economic conditions (unemployment can be a threat to a man's masculinity, take out frustration on women, regain power/sense of masculinity), limited resources (courts, hotels closed) - Quarantine limits people they can tell, limit places they can escape to, isolation hides the abuse,

SEEING SOCIETY IN OUR EVERYDAY LIVES
