PAPER
The objective of the reaction paper
is to examine a social problem and apply one sociological perspective
(Functionalism, symbolic interaction, and Conflict); furthermore, the social
problem should be narrowed down to an aspect of interest. For example, if one’s social problem is
abortion, the aspect of interest may consider abortion and its effects on
African American males living in Watts, California. Be advised that all students must choose an
aspect of interest; a broad discussion of a social problem is unacceptable
for the reaction paper. The reaction
paper must consist of the following:
Introduction
Introduce social problem
Present the aspect of interest
List and define chosen
perspective
Thesis statement
(3) Body Sections that discuss the aspect
of interest coupled with the social problem; furthermore, providing an
understanding using a sociological perspective.
Include at least five
sources in your body paragraphs (mandatory.)
All sources must be accredited
(Peer reviews or scholarly reviewed sources.)
Reference / Cover pages (does not count
as a page)
3-5 pages (content)
The paradigm must be argued throughout the paper!
