	Pontos: 1,0  / 1,0
	According to the Reflexive Modernity theory, politicians are not to be blamed for all of their decisions. Explain the reason for this conception.
		
	
Resposta: Politicians really can´t be blamed for all their decisions. They need to consider a lot of things, the interests from all society, respect laws and which decision is the best for all, before taking any decisions. People are used to complain about everything and focus on the bad things instead of focusing on the positive things that happens in our society.
	
Gabarito: According to the Reflexive Modernization theory, politicians are not to be blamed for all of their decisions because the political decisions that influence everyday life the most are not from formal political resolution, but from informal spheres of society.
		
	
	
	 2a Questão (Ref.: 270229)
	Pontos: 1,0  / 1,0
	A youth subculture is a youth-based subculture with distinct styles, behaviors, and interests, which are often regarded as against the norms of society. Research in cultural studies reintroduced the idea that subcultures are ways in which kids live out and understand a complex social structure. Skinheads in the 1970s represent a ´magical´ recovery of traditional working class culture. At the same time, hippies are living out a rebellious middle class culture.
Based on the previous comments, mention examples of up-to-date youth subculture in our country and justify your answer.
		
	
Resposta: An example of up-to-date youth subculture is the funk music. In our country, people who listen to funk are considered not right, deviant or acting againgt the right values that society imposes. We can´t judge a people by their musical taste, for example. There´s a lot of diferent classes and peoples who listen to funk music nowadays.
	
Gabarito: Suggested answer: funk and the student ought to find a proper justification for his choice. A possible one might be to mention that the ones who usually enjoy ´funk music´ may not necessarily ´fit in´in our society.
