Why Sociologist might think differently from a counselor about suicide?

Counselors address individual mental pathologies that lead to suicide. They are mental health care providers. Sociologists like the Father of the Sociology Emile Durkheim in his classic study on suicide are typically interested on societal trends about suicide and general characteristics on a demographic level on the person who is at risk for committing suicide. For instance, in Durkheim's classic study he found that the unmarried and Protestant were most likely to commit suicide. Sociologist are social scientists and do not provide any mental health care.

With railroads, regular people can go on vacations, the classic choice being the mountains or the sea? "By the sea, by the sea, by the beautiful sea, you and me, you and me, oh how happy..." Going to a show becomes "decent" for middle class people, especially with Gilbert & Sullivan.

Two Dimensions of Society - Static (synchronic) perspective • view of society as a snap-shot of essential structure • explains how a society reproduces itself as essentially the same • examples: feudal society, market society - Dynamic (diachronic) perspective • view of changing forms of society over time • resulting in theories of periodization (e.g. as epoches, stages of evolution) • historical vs. evolutionary models (deterministic) • example: classic Marxist versus functionalist models of evolution


What does the saying gas lighting mean?

It is from a classic movie thriller made in the 1940's in which a man (Charles Boyer) makes his wife (Indrid Bergman) doubt her sanity so he can get rid of her. As part of the plot he turns down the flow of gas to the gaslight whenever he messes around with her perception of reality. Therefore, to play such head games with people is called gaslighting them. * Perhaps it bears mentioning that gaslighting was developed in the 1800's, and it was far from perfect. The gaslights hissed, smoked, smelled, and produced much heat for the feeble light they provided, but they were used until electric lighting replaced them. This contributor has seen London in the Sherlock Holmes era referred to as "Gaslit London."
