    • DOI: They find that individuals in the latter half of the 20th century are more likely to marry spouses from similar parental wealth backgrounds than in earlier eras. They also note that scholars have underestimated how parental attributes may impact mate selection. Isen, Adam, and Betsey Stevenson. Working Paper Isen and Stevenson apply theories on how marriage has changed from a model of production complementarities i. In so doing, they explore and explain differences across social groups e.

    Racial diversity and the American future. Lichter contends that minority populations are expected to double by the year and that this trend—in conjunction with new immigration i. Of notable importance is the growing number of children who are racial minorities expected to be living in poverty. Martin, Steven. Demographic Research By analyzing the and waves of the Survey of Income and Program Participation, Martin finds that marital dissolution rates diverge by educational attainment.

    The author analyzes marriage cohorts from mids to s and finds evidence that marital dissolution rates for less educated women are on the rise; highly educated women, on the other hand, are benefitting from more stable marriages. Massey, Douglas S. The age of extremes: Concentrated affluence and poverty in the twenty-first century. Massey describes how the arrival of the Industrial Revolution enabled affluence and poverty to become geographically concentrated for the first time, leading to spatial and social distance between mainstream society and the poor.

    Massey argues that the pace of technological change reinforces existing inequalities and that geographic barriers between the rich and poor will likely continue to reinforce residential segregation in the future. Rugles, Steven. Patriarchy, power, and pay: The transformation of American families, — Rugles observes that, before the 19th century, the family followed a patriarchal tradition in which wives and children provided unpaid labor to sustain the family. This evolution, across each phase, is linked to specific economic changes, thus suggesting that family change is not driven by ideological changes but rather economic ones.

    Schwartz, Christine R. Trends and variation in assortative mating: Causes and consequences. Annual Review of Sociology — Schwartz provides an overview of the common types of assortative mating explored in sociology and economics; this includes studies that investigate mating by socioeconomic status, race and ethnicity, and religion.

    Through a focus on romantic relationships, Schwartz reviews the implications of trends in assortative mating for within-generation inequality, between-generation inequality, long-run population change, and relationship quality and dissolution.

    Then, even the traditional hierarchies that generate order, dissolve and become strong inviolable nucleus in which the individual can find himself, directing and limiting his own desires. This means that every opportunity to address the human being collapses.

    Consequently the individual is considered as a momentary unity of the passing swarm and driven by the fleeting current. That is a dimension impregnated with an illusory security of a free and optimal choice since it is the choice of a large number of people. The choice is what aggregates in a liquid world, as these spaces are to be rethought and redesigned according to certain canons able to shape the communities in which the individual - consumer can find and fulfill their sense of belonging. The malls seem to be hives of swarms of Bauman, as offering the ideally imagined community: a place where the purpose of purchasing aggregates.

    Moreover, in this sense, Bauman tracks in the anthropophagic strategy theorized by Levi-Strauss, f the practice of elimination of differences between individuals, which is reproduced in the supermarket: the privileged places of consumption in which is performed the aggregating power of purchase.

    The extreme variants of this emic strategy are, today as always, imprisonment, deportation and physical suppression. Two updated forms, refined modernized are the spatial separation, urban ghettos, the selective access to spaces. This process inevitably excludes those who are not in possession of the means fit to perform this activity, which, indeed, remains essentially solitary.

    Here in this game of appearances and reproductions the group gives way to the swarm, which, in the collective whirl, loses that authentic sense of belonging that makes each man a member of society, in which — mentioning Durkheim - it performs the natural duality of the subject: animal with socialized personality, union of instinct and reason, of self and world.

    Tools for intuition about sample selection bias and its correction. Race, class, and support for egalitarian statism among the African American middle class. Materialistic values of the older generation emphasize the possession of material goods, law and order, authority, a strong defense, and the fight against criminality. Fraile, M. McCollow, C.

    We will try to show that in fact one and the other have the same relationship with the respective substrate. But this approach, far from justifying the view that sociology reduces to a simple corollary of individual psychology, will, on the contrary, stressed the relative independence of these two worlds of these two sciences. Bauman, Liquid modernity , Polity Press, Cambridge, , pp. It is therefore clear difference between the two concepts are so close that they were often confused, namely those of social structure and social relations. Social relationships are the raw material used for the construction of models that make manifest the social structure.

    In no case, therefore, it can be identified as the set of social relationships observable in a given society. The investigations of the structure do not claim a sphere of its own, between the facts of companies; rather constitute a method capable of being applied to various problems ethnological, and resemble forms of structural analysis in use in different fields. The important thing is to know that what constitutes those models that are the peculiar object of structural analysis.

    The problem is not ethnological, but epistemological, since the definitions that follow are independent of the raw material of our research.

    We think, that, to merit the name of the structure, models should only meet four conditions. First, a structure has the character of a system.

    It consists of elements such that any modification of one of them involves a modification of all the others. Secondly, each model belongs to a group of transformations each of which corresponds to a model of the same family, so that the set of such transformations constitute a group of models. Thirdly, the properties indicated above allow to predict how the model will react, in case of modification of one of its elements. National Center for Biotechnology Information , U.

    Abstract Starting from the postmodern, the philosophical and sociological speculation by Zygmunt Bauman, opens - through the analysis of the phenomenon of globalization — to the meta-level of life, and then circumscribes the most recent thinking on political life, until reaching the liquid modernity: overcoming postmodernity itself.
