to answer the second and the third question, the frameworks/perspectives are the four as below:
Framework:
1. Crenshaw – Intersectionality: identifies multiple factors of advantage and disadvantage.
2. Blumer – Social problems as collective behavior: the course of the process of collective definition: (1) the emergence of a social problem, (2) the legitimation of the problem, (3) the mobilization of action with regard to the problem, (4) the formation of an official plan of action, (5) the transformation of the official plan in its empirical implementation.
3. Mills – Sociological Imagination: the awareness of the relationship between personal experience and the wider society.
4. Anderson & Snow – Symbolic interactionism: Symbolic Interactionism is a theoretical framework in sociology that describes how societies are created and maintained through the repeated actions of individuals. In simple terms, people in society understand their social worlds through communication — the exchange of meaning through language and symbols. Instead of addressing how institutions objectively define and affect individuals, symbolic interactionism pays attention to these individuals’ subjective viewpoints and how they make sense of the world from their own perspective.

to answer the seventh question, our discussion in class was mainly on the inequality in America and the four frameworks

2. Lussier (2022) tells us that managing your emotions and transactions with people on an appropriate level, assertively standing up for yourself, and addressing conflicts without hurting human relations will improve your effectiveness in organizations as well as your personal life. Yet many people do not feel comfortable expressing emotions, especially at work. Read the article, The Fear of Feelings at Work. Do you agree with the author’s claim that the expectation that employees should only display positive emotions at work can result in organizational failures? What did you think of Susan David’s concept of the emotional agility? How do her arguments about emotional labor connect with the readings from Chapter 5?

3. Despite the fact that conflict is an inevitable part of human relations, many people think of conflict as being inherently negative. However, when handled appropriately, conflict can have advantages. Describe the advantages and disadvantages of conflict. View the video, Conflict Management: The Real Bottom Line. What do you think of Ms. Morris’ definition of conflict? Based on the readings, how do you think we can move from the common method of addressing conflict she describes (characterized by a tendency to attack, avoid, defend, explain, and justify) to transform conflict into opportunities for learning?

Please carefully evaluate each source and place it from least persuasive to most persuasive.

Then, write 350 word justification.
Provide specific examples of how sources might be used in research.
Identify a secondary source that would effectively supplement the primary resources, providing different information.
Explain your reasoning behind the ordering system.
Does the medium by which a primary source is presented influence your decision more than the content?
Is a primary source’s content all that really matters when presenting information?
Sources speak differently to different people, so to help explain your ordering, imagine what type of audience (besides your instructor) would be best suited to accept your arguments.
You will need to select one secondary source that helps to justify your ordering of primary sources in this activity. Since primary sources can be better strengthened through the interpretations, critiques, and comments of secondary sources, it is important to give an example of which type of secondary source would be best and why.
Would a publication like an academic journal, scholarly magazine, or encyclopedia best help support these primary sources? Newspaper articles, textbooks, and investigative reporting found on your 24-hour news network also provide examples of secondary source material that could support primary sources.

Critical elements:
Evaluation (ranking) of primary source
Use of primary sources
Explanation of secondary source
