INTRODUCTION TO SOCIOLOGY
Sociology is the systematic study of social behaviour
and human groups. It focuses primarily on the
influence of social relationships upon peoples
attitudes and behaviour and on how societies are
established and change.
It deals with families, gangs, business firms,
computer networks, political parties, schools,
religions, and labour unions. It is concerned with love,
poverty, conformity, technology, discrimination,
illness, alienation, overpopulation and community.

DEFINITION OF SOCIOLOGY
George

Simmel - it is a subject which studies


human inter-relationship.
Max Weber it is a science which attempts
imperative understanding of social actions.
Sorokin - sociology is a study first of all the
relationship and correlations between various
classes, second between the social and non
social aspects of life and, third it studies
general characteristics common to all classes
of society.

DEFINITION OF SOCIOLOGY
Ogburn

- sociology is concerned with the


study of social life and its relations to the
factors of culture, natural environment,
heredity and group.
Emile Durkheim - It is the science of collective
representation.
E.S Bugardus - Sociology may be defined as
the study of the ways in which social
experiences function in developing, maturing
and repressing human beings through interpersonal stimulations.

WHY STUDY SOCIOLOGY?


To

obtain factual information about our society


and different aspects of our social life.

To

understand our society and to analyse the


social factors causing problems.

To

learn the application of scientific


methodology.

To

enhance broad-mindedness and tolerance


of the ways of the other people.

THE SOCIOLOGICAL IMAGINATION


According

to Charles Wright Mills, it is the


ability to see the relation between our personal
life and the social world. It enables us to see
things beyond our established ways of acting and
behaving, and gain a better grasp of the situation
by relating oneself to the bigger society. It is a
set of mind that enables us to locate ourselves in
the period in which we live and study the events
in our personal lives against events in society,
thus gaining a wider freedom.
It can help us understand what is happening to us
and why such social phenomena occur.

SOCIOLOGY IS A SCIENCE?
According

to Robert Stead sociology is a social


science and not a natural science, because it deals
with human beings and social phenomena. It is
positive and not normative science because it studies
social phenomena as it is and not as it ought to be. It is
pure and not applied science because it studies
underlying factors of a social phenomenon. Sociology
is an abstract and not a concrete science because it
studies society in general. It is a science of
generalization and not that of particularization because
it studies a social problem in general and not in
particular way. It does not study a social phenomenon
from a particular angle. It is an empirical or rational
science because it tries to follow logical method of
data collection.

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
EUROPE
Auguste Comte (French)
-he coined term sociology which derived from the
Latin word socius (social/being with others), and Greek
logos (study/science).
-Father of Sociology
He believed that in order to improve society the
theoretical science of society should be developed and
a systematic investigation of behaviour should be
carried.
-Positive Philosophy a book summarizes the stages
of development of all knowledge about humanity.

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
Karl

Marx (Germany)
- He wrote Communist Manifesto together with
his life-long friend Friedrich Engels.
- In Marxs analysis, society was fundamentally
divided between two classes i.e. Bourgeoisie
and Proletariat who have opposite interests. In
his examination of industrial society, he saw
the factory as the centre of conflict between
the exploiters (the owners of the means of
production and the exploited (the workers).

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
Emile
-

Durkheim (France)
He was the first professor of Sociology in the
University of Paris. He taught and became a prolific
writer and critic.
He asserted that behaviour must be understood in
that larger social context, rather an individual
action.
Division of Labour in the Society rapid social
change and specialized division of labour produce
strains in society.
Suicide showed the relationship between the
individual and the society when the values of life
become dangerous.

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
Max
-

Weber (Germany)
He studied legal and economic history in the
University of Heidelberg, where he obtained his
doctorate degree at the age of 25. He taught to his
student
the
Verstehen
(sympathetic
understanding of the mind of others).
He believed that understanding human action by
examining the subjective meaning that people
attach to their own behaviour and the behaviour of
others.
The significance of the subjective
perceptions of power, wealth, ownership, and social
prestige, as well as the objective aspects of these
factors.

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
Henri
-

Saint-Simon
He believed that the law of human behaviour
could be determine in the same manner that
the law of nature had been arrived at by
natural scientist.

Herbert
-

Spencer
His theory of social evolution espoused the
idea that societies develop from relative
homogeneity and simplicity to heterogeneity
and complexity. (survival of the fittest)

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
Other sociologist were:
George Simmel
Ferdinand Toennies
Wilfredo Pareto
Karl Mannheim

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
UNITED STATES
Robert E. Park pioneered in the multidisciplinary approach and social ecology.
James Adams popular female social thinkers
who studies in the impoverished areas of Chicago.
Charles Horton Cooley
Herbert Mead
W.I Thomas
- They formulated theories emphasizing the
importance of social interaction in the development
of human thought of action (Symbolic Interaction
Perspective)

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
William

Summer collected data on the customs


and moral laws of different societies.
Talcott Parsons he was the founder of the
sociology department in Harvard, developed
general theory of action that analysed social
phenomena ranging from individual behaviour to
the larger structure of society. He was a follower of
Durkheim.
Robert K. Merton known for the middle-range
theory (concerning with linking general theory to
empirical testing and developing concept of social
structure functions, self-fulfilling prophecies,
deviance, and bureaucracies).

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
PHILIPPINES
-It was introduced in the Philippines after the Spanish
Regime. First thought by Fr. Valentin Marin to
criminology at UST, using social philosophical way.
-It was followed by American educators named A.W Salt
and Murray Barlett (UP-D),Clyde Heflin (Silliman
University in Dumaguete).
-Some Filipino educators named Condrado Benitez and
Luis Rivera also taught sociology in western
orientation.
-Serafin N. Macaraeg view sociology as a problemoriented discipline using scientific view but wasnt
successful.

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
-

Social sciences studies made by western social


sciences on Philippine ethnic group when sociology and
anthropology were merged by H. Otley Beyer.
Significance of social facts increasingly became popular
in
decision-making,
and
Benicio
Catapusan
benchmark the data collection to the rural community
of different region.
Philippine Sociological Society (PSS) was organized
by different universities such as (ADMU, UP-D and SUD). The objective of the organization is to increase
knowledge about social behaviour, gather data about
social problems, train social sciences teachers and
develop cooperation to the other countries.

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY
-

Philippine Social Science Council (PSSC)


(1968), was formed to improved the quality and
relevance of the social sciences. The PSSC
Committee drafted a set of guidelines regarding
the sets of responsibilities of social scientists in
the New Society. It stated that Filipino social
scientist had made significant contribution to
society and urged them to continue their tasks
under the new social order.
Some Filipino sociologists named: Randolf
David, Cynthia Bautista, Sylvia Guerrero, Fr.
Renato A. Ocampo, and Ledevina V. Cario.

THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVES IN
SOCIOLOGY
Structural Functionalism Perspective
-It
also referred as social system theory,
equilibrium theory, or functionalism.
The society is composed of interrelated parts,
each of which serves a function and contributes to
the overall stability of the society. Societies
develop social structure or institutions that persist
because they play a part in helping society
survive. These institutions include the family,
education,
government,
religion,
and
the
economy. If anything adverse happens to one of
these institutions or part are affected and the
system no longer functions properly.

THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVES IN
SOCIOLOGY
Conflict Perspective
-A group in society are engaged in a continuous power
struggle for control of scare resources. Conflict may
take the form of politics, litigation, negotiations or
family discussions about financial matter. Simmel,
Marx and Weber contributed significantly to this
perspective by focusing on the inevitability of clashes
between social groups. Today, advocates of the
conflict perspective view social continuous power
struggle among competing social group.
Conflict theorists are primarily concerned with the
kinds of changes that can bring about, whereas
functionalists look for stability and consensus.

THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVES IN
SOCIOLOGY
Symbolic Interaction Perspective
-It focuses on the communication aspects or
language that enables the individual to develop a
personal identity within a society with members
having scripted statuses and roles.
-It involves the individuals in the society , their
definitions or perceptions of situations, meanings,
roles, and interaction patterns.
-The
society is reflected in every socialized
individual, and its external forms an structures are
likewise reflected through the social institutions
occurring among individuals at the symbolic level.

According to Sigmund Freud, personality


consisted of the three major systems,
namely: the id, ego, and superego.
A. Id is the biological component which is the
source of a number of drives and urges.
B. Ego the mediator between the needs of the
individual and the real world.
C. Superego the moral arm of the personality,
representing the traditional rules, values and
ideals of the society.

THEORIES OF PERSONALITY

Freuds Theory of Socialization

Stages of Development
1) Oral Stage from birth to one year old. Eating
(sucking) is the major satisfaction of this stage that gives
the baby nourishment and pleasure. Freud described this
stage as one primary narcissism or self-love.
2) Anal Stage from ages one to three years. The anal
zone become the centre of the childs sexual interest.
The influencing factors at this stage is toilet training.
3) Phallic Stage between the ages of three to six years.
The greatest source of pleasure comes from the sex
organs. The child feels erotic desires towards the parents
of the opposite sex. (Oedipus Complex and Electra
Complex)

THEORIES OF PERSONALITY

Freuds Theory of Socialization

Stages of Development
4) Latency Stage from ages six to eleven or early
adolescent. Their energies are redirected into
concrete, socially acceptable pursuit such as sports,
games, and intellectual. The child possess new
composure and self-control.
5) Genital Stage (Puberty) they focus on the
opposite sex, look around for a potential lovepartner,
prepare
for
marriage
and
adult
responsibilities.

THEORIES OF PERSONALITY
Symbolic Interactionism
-

This theory poses that the self-identity is


developed through the social interaction
with others, mediated by language in the
process of socialization.
Language is crucial in the development of
social-self.
The symbols that constitute a language
represent concepts by which the person
engaged in cooperative activity acquires the
attitudes of others involved in the activity.

THEORIES OF PERSONALITY
Looking-Glass Self
-

Charles Horton Cooley


The ability of children to visualize
themselves through the eyes of others,
to imagine how they appear to others.

Three Elements of Looking-Glass Self


1. The imagination of how we appear to other
persons.
2. The imagination of the judgement of that
appearance.
3. A sort of self-feeling (pride or mortification).
-

THEORIES OF PERSONALITY
Development of the Self
George Herbert Mead expanded the idea of
Cooleys idea of the social-self by relating the
idea of the self-concept to the role taking.
- Stages:
1. Play stage they acquire a sense of self when
they develop the me or self-consciousness
by seeing themselves through the responses.
2. Game stage - they visualize their own action
as a part of a whole pattern of group activity.
-

THEORIES OF PERSONALITY
Dramaturgical Approach
-

Erving Goffman said that All the world is a


stage
The individuals are performing and acting for
their audience in everyday life.
This theory elaborated the idea of role (acting
in accordance with the expected norms
attached to a particular position) and role
performance (the actual conduct of the role
in accordance with the position).
Example: a priest/nun expected to be humble and
compassionate

culture in a period of time.
Deviant
-The expression of radical or unusual political or
religious belief.
Deviance

behaviour is a result of aberrant genetic traits.
Psychological
-Being deviant is a result of personality disorder
or maladjustment that develops during
childhood.
-It can be observe in from aggression against
others or against society because of frustration.

SOCIOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO DEVIANCE


Functionalist Perspective
-According to Durkheim and Merton assert that
deviant behaviour is a consequence of anomie
or normlessness which results from the
existence of diverse sets of norms, with none of
them closely binding upon everybody.
Control Theory
-It asserts that deviance is learned. Participation
in subcultures and counter-cultures is part of
the socialization process of being a deviant.

SOCIOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO DEVIANCE


Conflict Theory
-The heterogeneous nature of society and the differences in
the distribution of social power lead to a struggle between
social classes. The conflict between the powerful and the
weak affect the creation of deviance and societys response
to it.
Symbolic Interactionism
- As the people interact with a deviant, they acquire the
techniques, motives, drive, and attitudes appropriate to
such behaviour. Labelling theory, is also belong to this
perspective explaining on how crime and deviance become
defined and labelled and the effect on a person being so
labelled, especially by official agencies and other persons.

their lives as an unending series of options.
3.Increasing social diversity. Traditions loses its
hold and morality becomes a matter of individual
attitude.
4.Future orientation and growing awareness of
time. Changes of thinking in terms of sunlight and
seasons to hours and minutes.

LEVEL OF HUMAN ACTION AND


CHANGE
1ST: Individual personality it focuses to externally
induced stimuli which are stimuli abstracted from the
social world that is either ignored or considered relevant.
2nd: Interaction among individuals this involves not
only in the relation among human beings but also the
personality development virtually entirely from human
interaction.

analysis, particularly the emergent properties of the
group where the social level is thought to reside.
4th: Cultural system the major emphasis is given by
society to the learning and transmission of values and
symbols.

THEORIES OF SOCIAL CHANGE


Evolutionary Theory - characterized primarily by an
assumption of smooth, cumulative change, often in a
linear fashion, and always in the direction of increasing
complexity and adaptability.
Equilibrium Theory - characterized by the concept of
homeostasis, and focuses on conditions tending towards
stability as a consequence.
Conflict Theory - characterized by the assumption that
change is endemic to all social organisms, and focuses on
conditions that tend towards instability as a consequence.
Rise and Fall Theory characterized by the assumption
that societies, cultures, or civilization regress as well as
grow, and that all societies do not move in the same
direction.

CAUSES, SOURCES AND BARRIERS


OF SOCIAL CHANGES
-

It is the result of cultural change and/or


technological change, and it can influence
either or both. Its rate, direction, and form
can be gauged through the factors of time,
place, goals, and objectives.
It is caused by the interplay of a large number
of non-social and social factors.
Some sources of social change are evolution,
discovery, invention, and diffusion. Its
order may be understood in terms of how
individuals, groups, or institutions accept

bilateral, and either bilocal or neolocal. A highly incidence
of poverty prevails.
Education in these areas are not accessible to many
pupils on some barangay. Dropouts rates are higher in the
rural than in urban areas. Many colleges graduates
eventually migrate to the urban areas.
Majority of the people are Roman Catholic, Aglipayan
(north) Islam (south) but believing in folk catholicism.
Usually fiesta was associated with the religious beliefs and
activity.

RURAL COMMUNITY
-

Healthcare
in
rural
community
are
deplorable, and a great number of children
suffer from severe malnutrition.
The government provide services to the rural
areas in the country however, the exist of
exploitation and capitalism come into place
that became the hindrance of development to
the said area.
Today, in order to improve the conditions the
government still have a LOT of project to be
done.

URBAN COMMUNITY
-

Is where the concentration of the people within a


relatively small geographic area. The urban community
may be a city of something resembling a city, which is a
relatively large, dense, and permanent settlement of
socially heterogeneous individuals.
The occupations are usually non-agriculture.
In urban community, the idea of urbanization emerged
it refers to the process of concentrating people within a
relatively small geographic area. It is related to social
change and growth. It requires a shift in values, attitudes,
and behaviour that are compatible with the local urban
patterns and, therefore, requires a long period of time for
a peasants to internalize an urban life-style.

URBAN SOCIAL PROBLEMS


Pollution

classified into two namely:


1. Air pollution mostly form fumes and smoke from
motor vehicles, factories and other industrial
establishments.
2. Water Contamination results of indiscriminate
dumping of garbage into the creeks, rivers and
lakes.
Garbage aside from being eyesore, it also serves
as the contributor for floods during rainy days.
Traffic result of lack of master plan for the
authorities and lack of discipline among the owner
of the vehicles and people.

DEMOGRAPHY AND
POPULATION

DEMOGRAPHY AND POPULATION


Population refers to the total number of person
inhibiting a country, city or any district. It also deals
with the observable and measurable data.
- Demography is the study of the size and make-up of
the human population and how it change. The main
sources of demographic data are:
1. The population census, with data on age, sex,
occupation, employment status, and migration.
2. Vital registration statistics like birth, death, and
marriages.
3. Sample or special surveys on households.
4. Data gathered and processed by government agencies.
-

MATHUSIAN THEORY OF POPULATION


Thomas Robert Malthus
-According to his Essay on the Principle of Population,
because of the strong attraction between the two sexes,
the population could multiply rapidly and, resulted to
increase of reproduction faster than food supply.
-Also, as the population grows bigger, food production
would be insufficient and most likely, famine and
overcrowding
would cause widespread suffering and
disease and an increase in death rate, which is natures
check on over population.
-He suggested that an alternative is to postpone married
until a much later age so that birth rate may be
decreased.

MATHUSIAN THEORY OF POPULATION


Two solutions (Thomas Malthus)
Positive checks to overpopulation by increasing the
death rate; which include war, famine, pestilence, and
disease.
Preventive checks to prevent overpopulation by
limiting the number of live births; which include
abortion, infanticide, sexual abstinence, delayed
marriage, and contraceptive use.

- This theory debated in the form of science and


technology

PROCESS IN POPULATION CHANGE


Fertility

It is the ability to produce offspring. It indicates the rate at


which babies are born. According to the demographers,
women have a potential for bearing age at age of 15 to 50.
- The fertility rate of a community was affected by some
factors such as weather, environment, religion and societal
norms about children and marriage.
Life expectancy
- The average number of years a persons is expected to live
from time of birth. It is hard to determine this accurately
because local statistics on birth and death rates are
incomplete and inadequate because some data are not
registered.
-

PROCESS IN POPULATION CHANGE


Mortality

The rate of death in population. A population with


many old people will naturally have a higher death
rate than a comparatively young population. It is
also assumed that because women live longer than
men, a population with many women will have
lower death rate.
Migration
- The movement of people for permanent residency.
It includes immigration, movement into an area,
while emigration is movement out of an area. This
can be divided into pull and push factors.
-

Fig. 3. Paradigm of Population in the Philippines and the Social

BASIS OF POPULATION EXPLOTION


Historical
-One of the most important of Spanish colonization
in the Philippines was the propagation of the Roman
Catholic. Since, the church does not favour birth
control. There is a high rate of population growth.
Sociological
-In rural areas, they believe that all events are
predetermined and inevitable and that the
happening that come their way are the results of
fate and destiny.
-The men and women feel ashamed to submit in
artificial methods of family planning.

BASIS OF POPULATION EXPLOTION


Economic
-In rural areas, the perception of some people that children
serves as their economic assets. They think that a big family is
better than a small one because children can earn a livelihood
for the family.
Anthropological
- It assumed that basis of population explotion is the Filipino
values, belief system, customs and traditions. The extended
family expected that the couple to have a number of children
during the marriage.
One is not surprised to hear remarks like, bakit wala pa?, if
the pregnancy does not takes place after marriage. The
husband is jokingly branded to be mahina if his first child is
not followed by another one year after.

BASIS OF POPULATION EXPLOTION


Political science
-It is observed that those
whose come from
high income groups, most often, come from
educated parents who have limited the number
of their children. On the other hand, the poor
with many children, by and large, do not have
taxable income.
Geography
- The rate of population growth in the rural
areas is significantly higher than that in the
urban. (debatable)

MARRIAGE

Why people marry???


Age preference for marriage??

MARRIAGE
It is the foundation of the family, an inviolable social
institutions. This is also serves as the continuation of
the cultural mechanism of the family.

methods to regulate the number of the children.
It reduces the need for unsafe abortion.
Some family planning methods help prevents the
transmission of HIV and other sexually transmitted
infections.
It reinforces peoples rights to determine the number
and spacing of their children.
It allows people to attain their desired number of
children and determine the spacing of pregnancies. It is
achieved through use of contraceptive methods and the
treatment of infertility.

BENEFITS OF FAMILY PLANNING


Preventing

pregnancy-related health risks in

women.
Reducing infant mortality.
Help to prevent HIV/AIDS.
Empowering people and enhancing education.
Reducing adolescent/pre-marital pregnancies.
Slowing population.
Note: Benefits of family planning was not only
for the society but also for individual health.

METHODS OF FAMILY PLANNING


Natural family planning
-The natural way of avoiding pregnancy by
observing, recording, and interpreting changes in
the cervical mucus or basal body temperature in
order to determine the safe and unsafe days of
menstrual cycle.
-The couple prevents pregnancy by avoiding
unprotected vaginal sex during most fertile days,
usually by abstaining or by using condoms.
-There should be an observation of few cycles
which is necessary before effective practice of
method.

METHODS OF FAMILY PLANNING


Calendar rhythm
-The use of calculations to determine safe and
unsafe days of the menstrual cycle, based on past
cycles.
-This method is recommended for women with
regular menstrual cycles ad who feel themselves
capable of following the requirements of method and
for women who cannot use artificial contraceptive.
Coitus interruptus (Withdrawal)
-The male withdraws his penis from his partner's
vagina, and ejaculates outside the vagina, keeping
semen away from her external genitalia.

Calendar Method

Cervical Mucus

METHODS OF FAMILY PLANNING


Tubal ligation
-This is don by cutting-off the fallopian tube to
block completely the passage of ovum and
prevent it from meeting the sperm.
Vasectomy
-This requires a simple operation by cutting-off
the vas deference so that the sperm will not entre
the semen that is discharged.
Note: Minor discomfort is experienced by the acceptor,
who need to rest from work for two to three days after
the operation.

Tubal
Ligation

Vasectomy

METHODS OF FAMILY PLANNING


Intrauterine device (IUD)
-A small, soft plastic device that is inserted into
the uterus. It can be placed or removed by
trained personnel only. The acceptors may
experience minor discomfort after insertion and
the possibility its being expelled.
Pills/Oral contraceptive

intended for women 19 to 34 years old who
desire to space child-bearing. It may be
inconvenient since the pills is taken daily

IUDs

Pills

METHODS OF FAMILY PLANNING


Injectable Contraceptive
-This is administered by one-dose injectable
contraceptive containing progesterone and
injected every three months. This is intended
for women 18-40 years old who wish to space
or limit child-bearing. It gives women freedom
from menstruation an the associated blood loss.
however, one advantages of this method may
be vaginal spotting even before the regular
menstrual period.

METHODS OF FAMILY PLANNING

of the upper arm; contains progesterone hormone only. Only
the health-care provider must insert and remove this
product. It can be used for 35 years depending on implant.
Like injectable irregular vaginal bleeding is common but not
harmful.
Condom

SOCIAL PROBLEMS AND


ISSUES

DIMENSIONS AND ORIGIN OF SOCIAL


PROBLEMS
-

It may be inferred that no society succeeds in


getting all its people to behave as expected all
the time because all societies have social
problems.
A social problems exist when a significant number
of people perceive an undesirable difference
between social ideals and social realities.
In addition, a
social problem involves the
deviance among in the society and natural events
such as earthquake, typhoons, eruption of
volcano, floods, famine and epidemics that
greatly affects the human lives in the society.

POVERTY
-

It is a condition that exist when people lack the means


to satisfy their basic needs. Extreme poverty is the
main cause of malnutrition and poor health.
Sociologically, it defines as denial of choices and
opportunities for living a tolerable life. It is
considered as the symptom of a social cancer.
It is associated to criminality, breakdown of morals
and socially accepted behaviour, low educational
attainment, low property values and poor life changes.
It has also devastating effects in the families, often
forcing parents to abandon children to seek
employment in their countries, not aware of the social
costs.

CAUSES OF POVERTY
Colonial

mentality
Dependence of Philippine economy on foreign
capital and investment
Capitalism and exploitation
Cheap labour
Graft and corruption
Overpopulation
Unemployment and underemployment
Low and limited educational attainment and
illiteracy

THEORIES OF POVERTY
Culture of poverty theory
-It is the result of cash and economy, labour
wage and production for profit, high rate of
employment and underemployment of unskilled
labour, low wages and inadequate social and
economic organizations to serve the low-income
bracket of population.
-It observed that poor members of the society
are less permissive in socializing with other
children, more fatalistic about ones views in life,
lack an interest in formal education, and usually
pleasure-oriented.

THEORIES OF POVERTY
Dependency theory
-accordingly, poverty in underdeveloped society has
been the result of a colonial socio-economic structure.
The growing of poverty among the underdeveloped
countries is due to the forced incorporation of the
economy of the developed countries.
-The massive exodus of money from underdeveloped
regions of the world also intensifies the destruction of
natural resources.
-This
apparent dependency of underdeveloped
countries to the highly developed countries has led to
the increasing impoverishment of the dependent
country.

THEORIES OF POVERTY
Social Darwinist Theory
-It assumes that the assets that economic
survival of any society depends, to a large
extent, on the individuals endowed with
superior intelligence that will plan, control,
regulate and lead its development.
-It also reveals that the upper and middle class
students who can speak and understand the
English language have better chances of
passing the prescribed examinations for job
hunting.

THEORIES OF POVERTY
Theory of Capitalism
-The continuous exploitation of poverty of the
people to accumulate huge profits. The poor are
always sacrificed the price of technological
development.
-This theory proposed by Karl Marx which reveals
the relationship and conflict between the
exploiters and exploiter. These relationships had
been the entire system of economic, social and
political involvement, which has virtually been
established to maintain the power and dominate
of the owners over the workers.

FACES OF POVERTY
Shanties

under the bridge


Brain-drain syndrome
Criminals
Prostitutions
Malnutrition
Increase of mortality rate
Rapid growth of population
- This is according to the speech of former
President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo during the
UN Congress in New York City, last 2009.

STRATEGIES TO REDUCE POVERTY


1.Equitable

and sustained economic growth.


2.Focused targeting
3.Effective and efficient delivery of public goods
and base social services.
4.People empowerment
5.Long-term solution to the problems of hunger.
6.Developed literacy programs.
7.Expand employment opportunity.
Dont give them fish, instead teach them how to
catch a fish

CRIME
-

The problem of juvenile delinquency and crime apart


to be common in all societies. Some of the major
causes of juvenile delinquency and crime are social
disorganization, poverty and broken homes.
The Child and Youth Welfare Code explicitly defines
the youth offender as one who is over nine years
but under twenty-one years of age at the time of the
commission of the offense. A child which is nine
years old or under when the offense was committed
shall be exempt from criminal liability and shall be
placed in the custody of the parents, or the nearest
relative, or the family friend, in the discretion of the
court and subject to its supervision.

CAUSES OF JUVENILE DELINQUENCY


1.

2.
3.

Social Organization the desire for power,


wealth and prestige, the atmosphere where fear,
hate, antagonism and hostility are prevalent are
elegant
manifestation
of
social
or
disorganization.
Poverty exist when the people didnt satisfy
his/her basic needs.
Broken Home the separation of husband and
wife brought about by war, migration,
imprisonment, employment outside the country,
marital discord, bickering, infidelity, and lack of
trust that consequently lead to legal separation.

PREVENTION OF JUVENILE
DELINQUENCY
Individual Programs
Individual Behaviour Therapy aims to modify
the behaviour of the delinquent by changing
the environment in which the behaviour occurs.
Social Skills Training
-It focused on micro-skills, such as eye contact
and body postures; macro skills, such as
negotiating with and handling encounters with
the police authority; and institutional behaviour,
such as avoiding fights and other forms of
brawls.

PREVENTION OF JUVENILE
DELINQUENCY
Cognitive Behaviour Programs
Self-control and self-instruction
Anger control
Role Taking
-The program designed to encourage young male
delinquents to see themselves from the perceptive
of other people to develop their own role-taking
activities.
Social Problem-solving
- It includes the skills of sensibility to interpersonal
problems, the ability to choose the desired outcome
of a social exchange (means-end thinking).

PREVENTION OF JUVENILE
DELINQUENCY
Moral Reasoning Development
-It increase the morality belief of the young
delinquent.
Multimodal Programs
-The program will improve the self-control, and
reduced problem behaviour.
Institutional and Community Program
-This program includes; secure institutions,
residential
establishment,
school-based
intervention,
family
intervention
and
diversionary projects.

PROSTITUTIONS
-

Prostitution as a social problem is considered as old as


mankind. It is the sale and purchase of sexual
relations.
This is the act or practice of engaging in sexual
relations in consideration for money.
There can be homosexual favours to women; but it is
the sale of female sexually to men that have usually
been the predominant pattern and, to a great extent,
has given rise to the greatest social concern.
Also, there is an misleading view of prostitutions as
being something done by prostitutes while ignoring
the casual significance of male demand for their
services, is itself indicative of the sexual double
standard on which phenomenon of prostitutions rests.

TYPES OF PROSTITUTIONS
Female Prostitutes they are usually seen in bar or
street and sometimes calls as street walkers or
hookers. In some cases, there were a called as high
class prostitutes known as the escort girls and guest
relation officers, sometime they are working as sauna
attendants, night club hostesses, hospitality girls,
escorts and models.
Male Prostitutes prostitutes that cater principally to
homosexual males.
They can be seen roaming around in conspicuous places
with no apparent purpose like department stores,
shopping malls, lobbies, and even hotels and gay bars
where homosexuals act as masseurs and escorts.

TYPES OF PROSTITUTIONS
Child Prostitution
-This common to some foreign tourists coming
from different countries and want to experience
what our country can offer. The issue of pedophilia
surprising nowadays, since we have always read
the fresh victim of prostitutions.
-It assumes that broken homes can make people
shy way from normal adult heterosexual
relationship since children are less threatening
and more passive sex partners.
-I may also inferred that when the child prostitute
grows up, he/she likely to become a pedophile.

CAUSES OF PROSTITUTIONS
Poverty
-Being hopeful of a better life, so they sacrifice
everything in exchange of money.
Illegal recruitment
-Sometimes young people from rural areas are the
target of illegal recruitment, a promise of better job
and better life makes them involve in prostitution
without knowing than they were became one.
Lack of education and information
-The promise of a good-paying job, aside from other
benefits like free board and lodging, beautiful dresses
and expensive jewelry become the motivating factors
why they are trapped into the illicit trade.

Why prostitutes stay in their job?


1. For

a better life until they meet someone who is


willing take them out of this job.
2. Enjoyment; they find it easy, glamorous and less
demanding.
3. Maintenance of fabulous life.
4. Income higher than housemaids.
5. They were forced to this kind of job because of
extreme poverty.
6. No available jobs for survival.
7. Broken homes.
8. Being loners during adolescence.

EFFECTS OF PROSTITUTION
1. Promotes

and facilitates the spread of


sexually transmitted diseases.
2. Health problems among prostitutes.
3. Drug addiction that lead to commit crimes.
4. It violates the monogamy which is sharing of
sex with only one partner.
5. Psychological demanding and adventurous to
their partners for satisfaction.

Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome


(AIDS)
-

This is a human viral disease that ravages the immune


system, undermining the bodys capacity to defend itself
against certain microbial organisms.
It is cause by infection with the human immunodeficiency
virus (HIV), which attacks selected cells in the immune
system and produce defects functions.
This leads to so-called neuropsychiatric abnormalities, or
psychological disturbances caused by physical damage to
nerve cells.
Historically, the disease first identified in 1980 among
homosexual men and injection drug users in New York
and California, shortly after evidence grew of epidemics in
Saharan-Africa and Haiti.

Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome


(AIDS)
-

AIDS has become worldwide. By 1995, 477, 900 Americans


had developed the disease which 295, 500 had died and
worldwide more than 14 million people were believed to be
infected.
In 1996, an estimated 22.6 million people worldwide were
living with HIV/AIDS (21.8million adults and 830, 000 children).
The WHO estimate that between 1981, when the first AIDS
cases were reported, and the end of 1996,more than
8.4million adults and children had developed AIDS.
There were 6.4million death worldwide from AIDS/HIV, about
360, 000 of these deaths occurred in the United States.
In 1984, there are 961 Filipinos infected with this dreadful
virus.
It also noted that 22 percent of the HIV positive were former
OFW.

The Nature of the Virus


-

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is an RNA retrovirus.


It has dense cylindrical core that encase two molecules of
viral RNA genetic material. A spherical outer envelop
surrounds the core.
It possesses a special enzyme, called reverse
transcriptase, that is bale to make a DNA copy of the viral
RNA. This enable the virus to reverse the normal flow of
generic information and to incorporate its viral genes into
the genetic material of its host.
The virus may then remain in a latent from for a variable
and often lengthy period of time until it is reactivated. The
mechanisms and triggers of the activation process is
important to the efforts being, made to control HIV
infection.

Modes of Transmission
Note: Isolated HIV from a number of body fluids,
including blood, semen, saliva, tears, urine,
cerebrospinal fluid, breast milk, and cervical and
vaginal secretions.
Sexual intercourse, whether vaginal or anal, with an
infected individual.
- homosexual or heterosexual transmission

Exposure to infected blood or blood products.


- blood transfusions

Infected mother to her child before or during birth.


- during childbirth or through breast feeding, although
some uninfected children born to HIV-infected mothers have
an incidence of heart problems 12 times that of children in
the general population.

FACT or MYTH
Is the HIV can transmit through the air?
Is the HIV can transmit through casual
contact?
Is the HIV can transmit through kissing?
Is the HIV can transmit though insect bite?

Signs and Symptoms of AIDS

Fever
Rashes
Meningitis
Pneumonia
Weight

Anemia
Diarrhea
Anorexia
Ulcers
Enlarged

lymph nodes

skin infection
Cough for more than
a month
Tuberculosis
Tumours in the
immune system
(lymphomas)
Variety of neurologic
disorders (dementia
complex)

Prevention and Control of AIDS


Educating

the public.
Heterosexual person must avoid living a promiscuous life.
Women found to be infected with the virus should refrain
from sexual intercourse to prevent pregnancy.
Screening blood donors and mandatory testing of donated
blood in blood banks, hospitals, and medical clinics.
Avoid sharing of needles and syringes.
Using condoms correctly and consistently during sexual
intercourse.
Avoid sexual contact with persons known or suspected to
have AIDS.
Have a regular medical check-up.

Safety Measures against HIV


Advantages of being tested:
The
infected individual can receive early
treatment and may live longer.
He/she can develop a good emotional support
system in the early stages of the disease.
He/she can inform his/her sex partner about
his/her infection.
He/she abstain from sexual intercourse with
his/her partner, or they can use protection.
He/she can avoid sharing items that come in
contact with blood such as razors, tweezers,
needles, and syringes.

Safety Measures against HIV


Psychological and socio-logical disadvantages:
A person found to be infected with HIV can be very
depressing and distressing.
The cultural and religious attitudes towards illness and
death on the infected person.
The feeling of uncertainty, fear, grief, depression,
denial and anxiety will certainly affect his adjustment to
his environment.
The feeling and fear of being discrimination against
and being ostracized by the people around him.
The family will likely suffer from the consequence of
the HIV.

Socio-cultural Factors Associated with


the Spread of the Virus
The

presence of the thriving commercial sex industries.


The frequent visit of a big number of foreigners as tourist in
our country who might potential carriers of the disease.
The
growing promiscuity of some Filipino males and
widespread experimental sexual escapades of young adults.
Widespread poverty, migration and social interest for a better
life.
The inadequacy of public information campaign about the
virus.
The seemingly declining set of moral value and the cherished
tradition about chastity in the Filipino family.
The lack of political will on the part of the government to
control and eradicate commercial sex industries in the country.

Treatment
Effective

drug treatment (it provides clinical benefit


and prolonged survival for individuals).
Medical supervisions and required therapies.
Gene therapy an alteration of genes on the infected
person to help prevent the virus from spreading
uninfected cells, but still NOT available worldwide.
Types:
1. nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors
2. non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors
3. protease inhibitors

Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD)


-

This refers to the infection through transmission


with a person who is infected with the disease
through intimate contact with another person.
The most common type includes syphillis,
gonorrhea, trichmomas, genital warts, genital
herpes, lymphogranuloma venereum, grauloma
inguinale, condyloma acuminatum, and hepatitis B.
Some symptoms of STD are: abnormal excretion
during
urination
discharge,
pain
on
abdominal/groin area, pain during sex, genital
rashes or sore. However, there were difference in
the symptoms among male and female.

A battered woman is a person who suffers not only


physical or verbal pain inflicted on her by her partner but
also deep psychological and emotional effect of the
abuse.
In the Philippines, married women between the age of 1724, 17.3% are battered while 48% belong to the 25-35
age group suffer emotional and physical violence.
Although there were a signs of progress and equal rights
advocacy, the women have remained basically inferior
and subordinate to men.
According to Women Crises Centre (WCC), predominant
Christian religious beliefs have helped maintain a sexiest
attitude towards women that keep them passive and
submissive to men.

Why Women Stay in Abusive


Relationship?
Dependency

on financial support and emotional


bonds including the sake of their children.
The abused fall in love with the soft side of the
abuser,
The
abused person still believed that the
behaviour will change eventually.
Fear and to avoid social stigma of being separated.

A Potential Women Beater


He

hurts you on purpose.


He has a scary temper.
He puts you down.
He cuts off from your friends.
He swings back and forth form sweet to mean,
then back.
He blames you for his anger.
He panics at the idea of breaking up.
He encourages you not to enjoy life.
He checks upon you.
He calls you names.
