[Blog Assignment 1] World Values Survey / Jeong Hyemin

 Q : Important in life: Family

I compared Korea and China how important family is in life.

I heard that policy requires only one child and sometimes hides the case of having more than one child.

On the other hand, individualism appears in Korea, such as having "dink people" who do not have children or not getting married at all. 

Therefore, I expected China to think that it is higher than Korea.

The results were not as expected. Although it was a fine difference, the number of respondents who answered "Very important" was higher in Korea than in China.

 Next(Rather important), China was a little higher, but they didn't show much of a relationship.

These are exactly the opposite situations for cultural critics today. Discussion  C ulture as a dimension of globalization

Introduction to our blog

This blog is a digital forum where students from Fall 2020 class in Sociology of Globalization at the Hanyang University in Korea will discuss their weekly readings and activities. For each section of the course, you are expected to post a blog post on relevant readings on our blog here and make a comment on another student's post. An ideal commentary should be about 800 words, divided into three clearly labeled sections in which you: 1) summarize in your own words of materials you read; 2) mention of any new, interesting, or unusual items learned; 3) identify at least one question, concern, or discussion angle that is either problematic in some respect or could have been elaborated more. This question is likely to be incorporated into our class discussions. You are allowed to quote an interesting passage from the text(s) you've read, but the quotes will not count toward any length requirements. Blog’s deadline is always: Sunday, midnight, of the week the question is posted. Re...
