Document Summary

Midterm review 2: how the matrix of domination framework differs from the diversity framework. Sociological paradigm that explains issues of oppression that deal with rcg, which, though recognized as different social classifications, are all interconnected. Focuses on investigating the structural patterns that join rcg rather than comparing rcg as separate systems of powers. Helps us understand how rcg are manifested differently, depending on their configuration with others. See the social structures that simultaneously generate unique group histories and link them together in society. Instead of just comparing, untangle work of social systems that shape the experiences of different people and groups. Do not think additively because misses the social structural connections among them and the particular ways in which different configurations of rcg affect group experiences. Focuses on structural systems of power and inequality. Examine the different experiences of various groups in society.
