  • In this lecture, we will study about:
    1. The theory of Social action that was propounded by Talcott parsons in his 1937 book - "The Structure of Social Action".
    2. Talcott Parsons was influenced by Max Weber, Emile Durkheim, Sigmund Freud and Vilfredo Pareto.
    3. Talcott Parsons using a synthethic approach synthetised the concepts of Utilitarianism, Idealism and Positivism into his Voluntaristic theory of action.
    4. He gives the concept of unit act and argues that action is shaped by Normative Constraints and Situational constraint.
    5. Actor is driven by Motivational orientation and Value orientation.
    6. He argues that there are three types of Motives namely Cognitive motive, Cathectic motive and Evaluative motive which combines with three types of values namely Cognitive, Appreciative and Moral value orientation to give rise to 3 types of action namely Instrumental action, Expressive action and Moral action.
    7. He analytically separates the different elements of unit act into Cultural System, Social System, Personality System and Organismic system.
    8. He argues that an actor manifest a structured and patterned action in terms of status-role complex.
    9. In status role complex, he gives the concept of Role expectations, Role Reciprocity and Double contingency.
    10. He analytically differentiates between Social Structure, Social System and Social institutions. He calls society as one big total social system.
    11. Structure Functionalism of Talcott Parsons.

    The kind of conceptual clarity you impart in your videos is incomparable. Please do not change your teaching methodology ever. I still cannot believe I can now make sense of Parsons.

    sir here in means of action as u said can be altered or changed . for ex going to temple we can not change situational constraint ie environemnet ,road , temple location and other physical paramater but here by means, which can be changed is something which is in hand of actor ie the way he drives the car, whether to take car , bus or taxi or which temple to go , which day to go , which time , whom to take with him wife, mother and children. sir is this notion correct

      @kaarwan-e-upsc  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@chhailushekhawat5067 Durkheim's view of religion is based on a functionalist perspective.... Now for his critic, you need to give counter view-points like Marxist perspective on religion (which is opposite to functionalist view) or weber's approach to religion (who criticises Durkheim's theory of religion as grand universal theory, he said we can not capture the totality of religious reality and therefore build an ideal type to study core aspects or essential features of religion and link it to capitalism).... Now, you need to 3-4 synthesise points from these diverse theories on your own to give critique of durkheim's religion based approach.... Also, I will teach religion chapter in later stages.... From there you could take up additional points.

      I have already covered it, though not directly.... Try to think on these lines or from different sociological perspectives... You need to cover it on your own. Marxists
      Positivists
      Functionalists
      Critical Theorists
      Micro vs Macro debate.

    21:05 to 22:40 sir actor wants to satisfy his needs which results in motives ( a reason to do something) which needs to formation of goals . but need disposition are {internal motive}, residues , derives plus values . sir how can motive are needs and then needs are internal motive.? sir if u have time please explain

    • @kaarwan-e-upsc
      @kaarwan-e-upsc  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Actors has internal motives which are shaped by external values (cultural system shapes personality system)..... This combination leads to rise of needs dispositions (Needs=Motive plus values).... To satisfy these needs, an actor defines goals and thereby manifest appropriate action negotiating with situational and normative constraints.
      In an action situation, therefore an actor has motivational and value orientation which leads to a specific type of action!!
