[ORDER SOLUTION] Social Hierarchy

Part 1 -Please watch all three videos and share your thoughts, reactions, and reflections with the rest of the class. A few questions to get you thinking: Are any of the concepts presented new to you? Do you see any other connections between these various ideas? Do you disagree with anything presented? Why or Why not? How would you apply any of these ideas to your life?  Here are three TedTalks that I think provide very interesting perspectives on aggression and violence. The first one is an epidemiologist that looks to solve the problem of violence by treating as disease. Gary Slutkin: Let’s treat violence like a contagious disease (abt 14 mins) Gary Slutkin Let’s treat violence like a contagious disease The second one is from famed psychologist Steven Pinker who argues that we are actually living in the most peaceful time in our species existence. Steven Pinker: The surprising decline in violence (abt 19 mins) Steven Pinker The surprising decline in violence And finally, social psychologist Paul Piff studies how social hierarchy, inequality and emotion shape relations between individuals and groups. Does money make you mean? (abt 17 mins)  This talk actually combines a great many concepts we have covered I believe ties it together for you very well.  Paul Piff Does money make you mean? (This talk really is NOT about money making you mean, it’s about how social hierarchy, inequality, emotion, and many other aspects of social psychology shape relations between individuals and groups as part of the human condition.)
