critical review of the article: The end of men by Hannah Rosin
Subject: Sociology
Objective: The objective of having you carry out a critical review is to help you cultivate your sociological imagination—a perspective that connects social outcomes to social contexts, social actors, and social actions. This sociological lens is particularly useful for helping us to think more critically about the relationship between social statuses—such as gender, race/ethnicity, and class—and one’s location in the social structure.
What is a critical review? For this course, a critical review is a written reflection of a mainstream media piece (you choose 1 from 2 that I have chosen) where you utilize theories, concepts, and empirical evidence from lecture material and readings along with articles published in sociology journals to critique the ways in which popular media represents issues surrounding gender and work. Note that critiques can contain both positive (confirmatory evidence) as well as negative (oppositional evidence).
Questions to Address in Your Critical Reviews:
I. Synopsis
Briefly outline the main argument being made in the piece. This will require you to synthesize the arguments made throughout the piece to come up with the main message of the article. Be sure not to outline each argument made (you will address these points in your crucial reflection) It may be useful to think about the conceptualization of gender, assumptions about men’s and women’s preferences, natures, etc. Think about how the author(s) may be drawing, perhaps implicitly, on theories discussed in class. Be sure to back up your discussion with course materials and/or peer-reviewed sources (see information on sociological sources below).
II. Critical Reflection
Identify the major arguments being made in the article and drawing on sociological theories and empirical evidence, assess the validity of the author(s) arguments (e.g. does your sociological evidence support or negate the author’s claims?). Due to page limitations, you cannot address every argument so choose the one’s that fit best with the topics discussed in class or those that most interest you.
III. Conclusions and Future Research
Based the sociological evidence that you have gathered, discuss what conclusions ought to be drawn, and whether or not your conclusions agree or disagree with the author(s) conclusions. If you think more research needs to be carried out in order to come to a more informed argument, what questions should sociologists and journalists be asking? Note: I want you to be creative and critical so feel free to go beyond these questions if you deem something worthy of further investigation.
