Required course essay on J. Toth\u2019s book <\/span>The Mole People<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

            \u201cThe sociological imagination [perspective] may be most useful in helping sociologists see the linkage between private troubles and public issues.\u201d Use the \u201csociological imagination\u201d which you have gained in the course to describe and analyze the place of the Mole People within US society and culture.  How can a sociological perspective provide us with a deeper understanding and insight into the lives of the people of this counterculture, and what does the existence of this counterculture tell us about the nature and social structure of the broader U. S. society which has created the counterculture of the \u201cMole People\u201d  in the first place?  Be sure to use as many<\/span> <\/span>sociological concepts and theories<\/span>, as developed in the Introduction to Sociology course, which you think are applicable to an understanding of the Mole people and their place within contemporary US society and culture.   For example, Marx\u2019s concept of \u201calienation\u201d clearly applies to an understanding of the underground homeless population.  You should also include sociological concepts and theories from the topics of Deviance and Social Stratification There are many other sociological topics and perspectives which could also apply to an understanding of the existence of the \u2018Mole People\u2019 in U.S. society, such as dysfunctional family life and its impact on those affected, or the availability and addictive use of hard-core drugs, such as heroin, within the daily culture of the U.S.  Be sure to comment on the nature and social structure of the underground communities formed by some of the tunnel dwellers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your essay should be about 5 pages in length, <\/span>word-processed, and double-spaced with regular margins.  Be sure to include a title to your essay, an introductory statement, a body of development, and a summary and<\/span> <\/span>conclusions<\/span><\/b>. <\/span><\/p>\n
