SOC 348 Lecture Notes - Lecture 6: Knowledge, Human Zoo, International Inequality
Document Summary
There is global inequality it shouldn"t surprise us. Look at the young people jumping the mediterranean just to cross over to europe. The conditions of these things have been created. There is only an extent to what you can talk about whether its luxury or not. There used to be human zoos - people kidnapped from other places, their origins, to be kept in zoos with animals in exhibits. People said that these people came from their places because they wanted to be famous or to have money. Anyone can be in this position if they are completely deprived - they have to eat and they have to go to a foreign country with strange people - how would you function. We have to make sure that these things don"t happen - though unfortunately people are still subjected to things on the daily - such as property.
