What is meant by the idea that race, class, and gender are interactive systems rather than individual variables? Think about your own family of orientation, and take one particular aspect of your family life as an example. Discuss briefly how race, class, and gender act simultaneously to shape that aspect of your family life.
Most people agree that marriages and families underwent major changes during the last half of the twentieth century; however, few people link these changes to larger societal changes that have taken place. Identify some of the major changes that have taken place during the past 50 years (for example, in transportation, technology, and social welfare policies), and discuss their impact on contemporary marriages and families. Reflect on your own family and consider how one such change has affected your family and/or families like yours.
Why do sociologists need different theoretical perspectives to explain marriage and family behavior? Why isn’t one perspective sufficient?
Identify a family from a culture other than the United States. Interview family members in terms of a range of issues, including family values, norms, customs, and rituals relative to marriage, childbearing, and childrearing. Compare your findings to families born and raised in the United States. How does your research help you to understand these sociological concepts, and what does it tell us about the diversity of marriages and families?
As discussed in this chapter, marriages and families today are faced with a myriad of challenges such as home foreclosures, unemployment, violence, poverty, and racism. If you were a member of a team charged with developing social policy pertaining to American families, what aspect of family life would you focus on, how might you research the topic, and what kind of policy(ies) might you suggest to policy makers?

Bariatric Surgery
Bariatric surgery, which at times is considered an elective procedure, is very popular in the U.S. During their recent monthly meeting, your hospital board of directors has recommended that you start a bariatric surgery center of excellence.
Using the Online library or the Internet, research bariatric surgery. Based on your research and understanding, respond to the following:
Robert is licensed real estate broker who maintains an office and employs several real estate salespersons. John is also a licensed real estate broker, but is not employed by Robert. John has an arrangement where he rents a desk in Robert’s office. Whenever John needed forms to use in his business, he used forms provided by Robert. These forms had Robert’s business name at the top.
Robert placed an advertisement in a local newspaper for property that his brokerage had listed for a property owner. Martha, who was looking for a property to purchase, read the advertisement and called Robert to arrange a showing of the property. Robert told Martha that he was very busy with other matters at the moment and would be unable to show her any property, but that he would send out “one of his men.”
The same afternoon John appeared at Martha’s home. John showed the property to Martha, and Martha had John write an offer to purchase the property. John used a purchase offer form that had the name of Robert’s firm on the top to prepare the offer. Martha signed the offer, and John gave Martha a copy. John told Martha to make out a check in the amount of $45,000 payable to him as an earnest money deposit on the purchase offer and told Martha that he would hold the check in the real estate office until the seller’s accepted Martha’s offer.
The next day, John cashed the check and both John and the cash disappeared. When Martha called Robert to ask whether her offer had been accepted by the seller’s, Robert told Martha that he did not know that she had made an offer and had not seen John since he sent him to meet with Martha.
What is Martha’s best argument that John is an agent of Robert, and what elements must she prove to establish this type of agency?
2. Sam and Gil teamed together to purchase a large tract of land, but were not successful in completing the purchase. Mike purchased the tract. Sam approached Mike to ask if Mike needed assistance to develop the tract. Mike hired Sam and Sam worked as Mike’s employee to do financial analyses and steer properties through the approval process necessary to convert the raw land into parcels that could be sold to residential subdivision developers. Sam was paid $20,000 per month for his work, and was entitled to 5% of any potential profits gained through the sale of any of the parcels.
When the development approvals were obtained, Sam helped Mike negotiate the sale of the property to SG Corporation, a corporation owned jointly by Sam and Gil, for $20 million. Mike dealt with Gil on the sale of the property and was not told that Sam was a shareholder in the corporation. After the sale, Mike and Sam agreed that Sam’s employment would terminate, and Sam told Mike that he was going to work for SG Corporation on the further land development. Five months later, SG Corporation sold the same property to a residential subdivision developer for $110 million. When Mike heard these details, he was not amused. He filed a lawsuit against Sam for breach of fiduciary duties.
Discuss fully whether Sam had fiduciary duties to Mike and, if so, which fiduciary duties Sam may have breached.
Harold owned the Great Value grocery store and hired Ed as his produce manager. Ed’s job description described his duties as overseeing the purchasing, inventory and presentation of fruits and vegetables, maintaining the appropriate product assortment and inventory levels for the department, confirming price accuracy, ensuring that the produce department was clean and sanitized daily, supervising department employees, and overseeing other department activities to maximize sales and gross profit.
When attending a grocery store trade show, Ed met Mary, a salesperson for American Grocery Equipment (AGE), a computer company that sold point-of-sale checkout systems for the grocery stores. Mary demonstrated the checkout system to Ed and Ed thought that this would not only help him keep track of produce sales, but would also provide more efficient inventory control for the entire grocery store. Mary offered to give Great Value a trade show discount if the store purchased the system that day. Ed told Mary that, as the produce manager for the store, he could sign a purchase agreement for the store, and had Mary prepare a contract, which Ed signed as agent for Great Value.
Two weeks later, AGE employees arrived at the Great Value store and asked a clerk when they could start installing the checkout system equipment. The clerk called Harold, who was in the store’s office, and Harold met with the AGE employees. When Harold said he had not ordered any such equipment, the AGE employees showed Harold a copy of the contract that Ed had signed as Great Value’s agent. Harold told the AGE employees that he needed to speak with Ed, who was not working that day, and that they would need to come back in two days. The next day, after reading the contract and discussing the matter with Ed, Harold decided that the equipment was overpriced, and called Mary to tell her that Great Value did not want the equipment. Mary insisted that AGE had a firm contract with Great Value.
Discuss whether Ed had authority to sign the contract, and include in your answer a full discussion of all potential types of agency authority (actual [express and implied], apparent [ostensible], and agency by ratification), the factors required to establish each type of authority, and whether Ed did, or did not, have each of these types of authority based on the facts. The homework assignment will be graded based upon how accurately and completely you identify the issues presented and legal principles related to those issues, and apply the legal principles to the facts, using proper sentence structure, grammar, and spelling.
efining and understanding the elements of a group culture is essential to forging a professional identity either online or in person. These elements are important because they reflect how professionals interact, whether online or in person.
An industrial or workplace culture consists of different occupations, roles and statuses. A hospital is an excellent example of a number of people working in close proximity representing different occupational groups. Patients, nurses, health care specialists, surgeons, administrators, security, and support staff groups all function together but may be identified by their equipment, behaviors and language, and the tools and training used to get their work completed.
In this Assignment, you will write a descriptive report about the industry culture of a group of people within the workplace, preferably your career field industry culture. Please note that this focus should not be on racial or ethnic cultures.
