SOC 308 Week 1 DQ 1 Constructing Race
Review the PBS website RACE – The Power of an Illusion as you prepare for this discussion. This site offers many examples of how the science of human difference contradicts ordinary ideas of race.
As we see in the readings and in this website, race is socially constructed, a system of thought and human behavior not directly based on nature, instead resulting from social ideas and practices. In other words, race exists because people believe it is real and important.
Please respond to the following:
How has race been constructed in the United States?
Provide a specific example of how race continues to be socially constructed.
What groups are harmed, and benefit, from these constructions of race?

SOC 308 Week 2 Ethnic Group Evaluation
Ethnic Group Evaluation. Please review Chapters 5 through 9 of Race and Ethnicity as you prepare for this assignment.
By the mid-twentieth century, European immigrant groups described in Week One had combined to form a white racial majority in the United States.
Today, Blacks, Native Americans, Asians, Hispanics, and non-white Europeans interact with the white majority in a system of race that can be broadly described as comprising whites and non-whites, whites and racial minorities, or whites and people of color.
While unique ethnic groups share a culture in which ethnic conflict is present, including pressures to assimilate, the broader culture also celebrates the unique culture of many ethnic groups in America.
Write a paper in which you evaluate a selected major ethnic group in the United States. Please elaborate on the following points in your essay:
a. Select an ethnic group from among those discussed in Chapters 5 through 9.
b. Examine the history of this group in the United States, including immigration, assimilation, conflict with other ethnic groups, and other issues of interest.
c. Provide an example of a widely held myth or misconception about this ethnic group. How do we know this is a myth? Why is this myth so difficult to abandon?

Jose Vasconcelos proposed the assimilation of ethnic groups in Mexico into a new “cosmic race.” This concept is discussed in the readings as well as in The Cosmic Race. More information can be found with a web search.

After reviewing your text, the linked document above, and others found in your web search, describe what Jose Vasconcelos means by a cosmic race and then evaluate the cultural ramifications of this idea. Compare this evaluation with the melting pot ideal of the US. Use these two examples to infer the role of national or cultural identity to a given society.

SOC 308 Week 5 DQ 1 Northern Ireland
English involvement in Ireland dates back to 1171, when English King, Henry II invaded the island to expand his empire. Since then, politics in the region has been characterized by varying degrees of tension between Irish independence and British rule. This tension has often flared into violent conflict. As in other global situations, what might be more accurately described as a political and economic conflict has become an ethnic conflict, with opposing groups unified around cultural and religious identities.

Please respond to the following:

  • In your informed opinion, what events led to the peace agreements immediately preceding the current state of harmony?
  • Given the long history of conflict, is it likely that disputes between England and Ireland have been permanently resolved?
  • What can be done to decrease the chance of further conflict?
  • What does this example tell us about the social construction of ethnic identities?

SOC 308 Week 5 Final Paper
A sociologist must be able to analyze racial and ethnic differences in different national contexts.
For example, in the U.S., we tend to think of race in a particular way. In order to develop this skill, select and analyze a society demonstrating ethnic stratification and conflict, including evidence of prejudice and discrimination. In addition to a description of the selected society, include an analysis of similarities and differences as compared to the United States.
While the following example can be modified to suit your needs, this outline is likely to result in a high quality Final Paper:
1. Title
2. Describe the selected society, focusing on ethnic groups, stratification, and conflict.
3. Provide examples of the problem, including evidence of prejudice and discrimination.
4. What do the experts say about ethnic problems (or ethnic harmony) in the selected society?
5. Compare the selected society to the United States. Evaluate similarities and differences related to ethnic groups, stratification, and conflict, using specific examples gathered in your research.
6. Conclude with reflections and thoughts about ethnic groups and the societies in which we live. This is a good place to include personal opinions, assuming you wish to share them in a research paper.
7. References
Academic Research
Academic research papers must meet university level standards of quality. What constitutes quality, academic research?
1. Primary sources written by experts in the field of study.
2. Secondary sources supported by research in primary sources
3. Credible sources (experts in the area of study) – If your citation and reference cannot include the name of a credible expert this is most likely not a scholarly source.
4. Relevant research (materials are pertinent to the area of study)
5. Peer-reviewed journal articles (journal articles reviewed by recognized experts in the relevant field of study)
6. Educational and Government websites (those ending with a web URL suffix of .edu or .gov) may be appropriate in some cases but should be evaluated carefully.
Please visit the Academic Research section on your course homepage (accessible through the Student Responsibilities and Policies tab on the left navigation toolbar) to review what types of materials are not acceptable for academic, university level research.
The paper must be eight to ten pages in length, formatted according to APA style, and include a title and a reference page (which does not count towards the page length). Support your points with examples from the text and at least seven scholarly sources, three of which can be found in the Ashford Online Library.
For information regarding APA samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center, within the Learning Resources tab on the left navigation toolbar, in your online course.
