Changing Norms

Changing Norms
This discussion forum allows you to think current social norms and traditions.

Deliverables
Your participation in the discussion forum, including the following:

A response to the initial question(s)
Responses to at least two other students’ posts

Step 1
Write a post in response to the following prompt:

The introduction of sociology as “the study of society” or “the science of man” created a social upheaval in the nineteenth century that destroyed many traditions and social norms. Among these were challenges to religion and the divine right of kings. During the 1960s, other traditions were being challenged by the feminist perspective such as the family and the role of women.
What traditions and social norms in today’s society are being challenged in a similar manner?

Step 2
Read and respond to other students’ posts.

Read other students’ posts and respond to at least two of them who used examples different than yours.

Use your personal experience, if it’s relevant, to support or debate other students’ posts. If differences of opinion occur, debate the issues professionally and provide examples to support opinions.
