What ´s the ´ mass society thesis ´?

improving people´s view of culture of their own country.

making people purchase objects/products they really need in order to provide 
capitalists with profits. 
 It is a pessimistic critique of mass/popular culture, based on sociological theories 
such as Marxism. It suggests that popular culture prevents critical and 
revolutionary thought. It leads to a society where individuals lose their sense of 
community, their individuality and come to rely on strong authority from above. 
 It is a positive view about mass/popular culture. It allows masses of people to 
think for themselves and dominate the rulers of a state or country.

sociologists to adopt a more relativistic position when thinking about and comparing 
cultures. In this view, 
 
 Different cultures should not be tolerated because they are inferior

Sociology is a science which has a rich and varied history. Whether it be the social 
systems approach or the social exchange tradition, it is deeply committed to the 
development of sociological theory in the service of addressing fundamental 
sociological questions about the empirical world. What has sociology been concerned 
with, since its beginning? 
 
 With the various branches of feminism and women's roles and obligations at 
home and in society, relating the household tasks to women's responsibilities, 
so that society must keep a sense of balance. 
 To the best of our knowledge, it has been worried with human beings and their 
relationship with God. It addresses humans as created in the image of God, 
with a special qualitative relation to God compared to other species. 
 Due to its relevance in our lives, it is concerned with the biological features that 
make us human (such as physiology, genetic makeup, nutritional history and 
evolution). 
 Given its importance in every aspect of our social life, the concept of sociology 
is concerned with the history of human past through its material remains. 
 It has been concerned with the relationship between the individual and society, 
the role of culture in social life and how identity develops in a social context.

The hotels Brazil needs for the World Cup never got built. (THE WASHINGTON POST) 
The Gavea Tourist, in Rio de Janeiro, is an empty shell of a hotel, a 14-story modernist 
monument of disintegrating concrete and decaying beauty that has been abandoned 
for four decades. It is one of three huge, architecturally ghost hotels in Rio de Janeiro, 
all of which are vacant in a city facing a shortage of rooms for June´s World Cup 
soccer tournament. 
Rio could use the Gavea Tourist´s 400-odd rooms. Instead, it is an emblem of the 
obstacles that interfere in Brazil´s World Cup preparations: bureaucracy, a slow-
moving judiciary and a lack of imaginative planning. 
´´The bureaucracy is phenomenal. The technical capacity of the Brazilian state to 
produce infrastructure . . . is very low´´, said Christopher Gaffney, visiting professor in 
architecture and urbanism at Rio's Federal Fluminense University. 
Segundo o texto, que problema o Brasil enfrentará durante a Copa do Mundo? 
Por que isto deve ocorrer? 
O que dificulta a solução para este tipo de problema no Rio de Janeiro? 
 
 O Rio de Janeiro terá problemas porque um hotel na Gávea não ficou pronto. 
Por falta de infraestrutura da firma responsável pela construção. 
A burocracia do Estado do Rio de Janeiro. 
 Porque três imensos hotéis deveriam estar prontos e isso não ocorrerá até 
lá. 
Porque a inflação prejudicou o crescimento na área de construções. 
A burocracia e a incapacidade administrativa de lidar com a área econômica 
por parte do governo local inviabilizou as obras. 
 Problemas relativos aos movimentos sociais que poderão gerar situações 
complicadas. 
Porque o governo Brasileiro não consegue lidar de maneira eficiente com 
estes movimentos. 
Porque o governo Brasileiro não está preparado não somente pela 
burocracia, mas pelas leis sobre infraestrutura. 
 Porque o Hotel na Gávea de 14 andares, que foi construído para o evento, 
não tem mais quartos livres. 
Porque o Brasil não possui infraestrutura para prever estes problemas. 
Porque deveriam ter previsto que, com o número provável de visitantes, a 
construção de apenas um hotel a mais na cidade não seria suficiente. 
 O Rio de Janeiro não terá quartos de hotel em número suficiente para 
abrigar todos os visitantes. 
Porque muitas construções de hotéis não estarão prontas até lá. Há obras 
inacabadas como o Hotel na Gávea, por exemplo. 
A burocracia é fenomenal, a capacidade técnica do governo Brasileiro para 
produzir infraestrutura é precária/ ineficiente.

Weber´s was the type of mind which was continually developing throughout his 
intellectually productive life. His system of ´sociologicaltheory´ was not meant to 
stand alone. We dare say that his work may be conceived rather as an introduction to 
the institutional foundations of the modern economic and social order. For Weber, 
what is the difference between behavior and action? 
 
 Weber regarded action and behavior basically as synonyms, as one was a 
consequence of the other. Action, in his opinion, would lead to behavior. 
 Weber´s behavior theory is associated with the institutionalization of authority 
and corporate groups while the action theory deals with the process of 
systematic development of modern theoretical social sciences. 
 According to Weber, behavior takes account of the attitude other people have in 
relation to us and is thereby oriented in its course. Action is for him 
unmotivated. 
 Weber´s action theory would take into consideration the way someone was 
raised, the family relationships, the human values while behavior is meant to 
designate the independent significance of the human beings. 
 Behavior is an automatic response that occurs with little thought, whereas 
action is the result of a conscious process in which people give meaning to their 
actions and the world around them.

Why are Giddens concepts criticized? Because 
 
 Giddens addresses the question of who can transform what aspects of social 
structure and how. 
 he exaggerates the degree of choice that individuals have over their own lives, 
and plays down the fact that often our lives are not of our own choosing. 
 Giddens praised too much the liberty a special group of people had. 
 He states that structures tend to control people and there is no way out of it. 
 Giddens ignores the fact that some individuals don¿t have more agency than 
others in society, since they have less power.

Para Habermas, a estrutura social é formada por convenções que delimitam o campo 
de ações, estabelecendo as condições pelas quais escolhemos uma determinada ação, 
pensando ter feito a melhor escolha possível. A linguagem é o instrumento que 
utilizamos para isso, sendo essa estrutura a maior responsável por determinar a forma 
como ela é usada. A partir dessa concepção, podemos dizer que 
 
 a estrutura social utilizada pelos ouvintes de uma língua não dispõe da 
possibilidade de retorno e reinterpretação do discurso, podendo alcançar o fim 
pretendido por eles ou não.
