Identify any social problem and analyze it using the objective and subjective criteria in the first chapter of your textbook. Why does it qualify as a “social problem” as defined within sociology?
You should discuss the following points:
- What is the shared undesirable condition faced by people who have this problem? What must they face that other people don’t have to?
- Who are the people (the social group) who have this problem?
- By whom is the problem recognized as a problem? Are there others who deny that it is a problem?
Your submission should be a minimum of 700 words in length and should reflect consideration of course materials and previous lessons.
