anthropology essay 2 1

Word count 750, not outside resources needed. Make clear citation

Outline:

This paper will offer your reflection on Edith Turner’s There Are No Peripheries to Humanity(post in file) and the concept of “framing process” discussed on p. 355 of Essentials of Cultural Anthropology.

Throughout her article, Turner describes how Inupiat people sought recognition that their disproportionately high rates of cancer and cancer deaths were due to radioactive dumping and poisoning of their land and water. Turner started her research with the Inupiat with one goal: to study healing. In that process, the ravages of cancer became an overwhelming reality not only for the Inupiat people of Point Hope, but for Turner as well. This led her to join in their fight for justice, and to question the role of the anthropologist and anthropological research.

Throughout, we are offered different frames for understanding cancer in Point Hope and the role of the anthropologist. These frames include those of U.S. government agencies, the people of Point Hope, and Turner herself. While Guest’s definition describes a “framing process” as the “creation of shared meanings and definitions that motivate and justify collective action by social movements” (Guest, 355), anthropologists often encounter framing processes among government officials and others in power, as well. These are often similar to what Tett describes in the excerpt from her book “Fool’s Gold”: that those in power also frame issues in way that may serve their interests, such as by acting on shared ideologies and assumptions that permit one set of facts to be public, but keep another set of facts quiet or hidden. In relation to cancer in Point Hope, at least three groups, U.S. government agencies, Point Hope residents, and the anthropologist, Edith Turner, were engaged in framing the issue and their role in it.

First, using the expanded discussion of a “framing process” above, write 750 words describing how:

  1. U.S. government agencies initially framed the high cancer rates in Point Hope (or what justification they offered for not exploring the possibility of radioactive pollution);
  2. The people of Point Hope framed their position vis-a-vis the government and their high cancer rates (or what shared understandings did they create that motivated action);
  3. Edith Turner framed her role as an anthropologist, and how that changed over time. Did she come to accept the frame offered by the U.S. government or that offered by the people of Point Hope? Why?

4. Finally, describe how the balance of power shifted over time, that is how the people of Point Hope were able to convince U.S. government agencies to pay attention to their frame and clean up the pollution.

sociology 1 2

Total words count: 350

Reading article You May Ask Yourself reading link: https://digital.wwnorton.com/youmayask5

login name: hwang3@uoregon.edu

Password: Doudou0539

Chapter four (4) (pages 117 – 151 in You May Ask Yourself) deals with socialization and how society works. We learn about the ways in which we internalize social norms and the creation of the generalize other. William Shakespeare, (and Irvin Goffman) frame the social world as a play with everyone as actors on the “metaphysical social stage … struggling to make a good impression” (YMAY page 140).

For this prompt, I would like you to violate a norm – a breaching experiment.

Note: This norm violation experiment is also the Essay #2 assignment due on Thursday of this week. I want everyone to be able to process the experience with one another. Please use this prompt as a way to describe your findings to your peers before writing up your experience in your short essay for Thursday.

Here are the directions of the assignment (below).

Breaching a Social Norm

Objective
This exercise demonstrates the way in which our interactions with others are often guided by an unwritten script. By violating that script students will illuminate the content of the script. This activity also illustrates how interactions with others shape our social behavior, encouraging us to abide by, rather than challenge, the unwritten rules contained in the script.

Description
You will conduct an exercise that violates social norms. This exercise may be performed alone or in a group (of your choice) of four or fewer participants. The norm violation must exclude illegal activities or those that might risk someone’s safety, health or well-being. If conducting your experiment as a group, each group member will perform the breach once. When not performing the breach, the other group members should observe the interaction and write an observation log documenting people’s reaction to the breach. The group member performing the breach should write a small paragraph afterwards about how it felt to break social norms.

This essay should include:

1) A description of the norm you violated. Was it a folkway or a more? (Remember, you cannot break a law).

2) A description of the violation.

3) A description of the most general way people responded as the violation was enacted.

4) A description of how you felt enacting the norm violation.

5) An analytic discussion of the sociological significance of the breach.

Note: Examples of the norm breach includes, but is not limited to:

Saying hello to everyone, violating people’s personal space, standing right next to someone on the elevator, walking on the wrong side of the sidewalk, whispering/yelling when you talk, talking to yourself in public, eat with your hands, saying “goodbye” when answering the phone, etc.

Note: Again, you may not do anything illegal, or that might risk someone’s safety, health or well-being when you are conducting your norm violation experiment.

lab week 2

Lab 2 – Water Quality and Contamination

Experiment 1: Drinking Water Quality

Bottled water is a billion dollar industry in the United States. Still, few people know the health benefits, if any, that come from drinking bottled water as opposed to tap water. This experiment will look at the levels of a variety of different chemical compounds in both tap and bottled water to determine if there are health benefits in drinking bottled water.

POST-LAB QUESTIONS

1.Develop a hypothesis regarding which water sources you believe will contain the most and least contaminants, and state why you believe this. Be sure to clearly rank all three sources from most to least contaminants.

Hypothesis =

2.Based on the results of your experiment, would accept or reject the hypothesis you produced in question 1? Explain how you determined this.

Accept/reject =

3.Based on the results of your experiment, what specific differences do you notice among the Dasani®, Fiji®, and Tap Water?

Answer =

4.Based upon the fact sheets provided (links at the end of this document), do any of these samples pose a health concern? Use evidence from the lab to support your answer.

Answer =

5.Based on your results, do you believe that bottled water is worth the price? Use evidence from the lab to support your opinion.

Answer =

**NOTE: Be sure to complete steps 1 – 32 of Lab 3, Experiment 1 (the next lab) beforethe end of this week. Lab 3 involves planting seeds, and if the work is not started this week, your plants will not have time to grow and the lab will not be finished on time.**

FACT SHEETS: Please refer to these to answer Question 3. If you use information from any of these, don’t forget to cite and reference it in APA format in your lab. You are also welcome to use additional or alternative credible resources that you locate online if you wish.
