human experience as it has many aspects. Fromm-Reichmann (1959) asserted that there are several different types of loneliness. She distinguished culturally determined loneliness, self-imposed aloneness, compulsory solitude, isolation, and real loneliness. She noted that those experiences are not well distinguished from one another. She placed a particular attention to the concept she referred as real loneliness on her article published in 1959. According to Fromm-Reichmann…

The American flag is a very special symbol to me. Soldiers have put their life on the line to earn the right to have our flag. The flag is so special to us that every morning we say a pledge to it. Recently people have not been very respectful to the flag. They have been setting it on fire and walking on it which is very disrespectful. The American flag has fifty stars and thirteen red and white stripes. The thirteen stripes stand for the thirteen colonies that we originally settled in. the…

every day behaviours. Although there are most certainly similar aspects of social interaction both face-to-face and through the use of technology there are in fact some unparalleled theories. Furthermore, at the time in which Goffman was writing, in 1959, society was a very different place to what it is like today and thus the way in which individuals engage with each other has also inevitably changed also. Secondly, a criticism in which Goffman received off of a number of fellow sociologists is…

The Cuban Revolution took place between the years 1953-1959. The revolution, technically, started in 1952 when Fulgencio Batista took power in Cuba, again. Batista had previously been an army sergeant in Cuba from 1921-1940 and president from 1940-1944; however, with these new elections in 1952, Batista was certain that he was going to lose, so he then decided to take power. Fidel Castro would’ve most likely won a seat in their “Congress” if the elections would’ve been done, but since they…

Smart believes that when we talk about our sensations, we talk about our brain states; we report on them. I cannot agree with Smart knowing that scientific theories about sensations are constantly changing (Smart 1959, 147). If we report a sensation x in the year 2015, for example, that sensation may scientifically advance and no longer mean the same thing in the year 2020. As neuroscience constantly changes, we are forced to eliminate our old thoughts, ideas and…

Those who study symbolic interactionism also known as interactionists, “focus on the subjective aspects of social life, rather than on objective, macro-structural aspects of social systems.” (Ferguson, 1959: 36). Interactionists focus on a smaller group of people rather than society. Their main focus is how people interact with each other and they pay attention to daily lives of individuals. Symbols are meanings and people use these meanings to decide what to do in their daily lives. In “Teenage…
