Charles Murray is a New Right sociologist who says the traditional family is under threat. Murray says that welfare benefits are too high and create a ‘culture of dependency’ where an individual finds it easy and acceptable to take benefits rather than work. He also created ‘underclass’ which is the idea of people who live or benefits and do not work.

The New Right theory was developed in sociology in the 1980s. It’s based on the idea that the traditional nuclear family and its values (mom, dad and kids, parents are married, dad in paid employment) are best for society.

New Right theorists are particularly concerned about giving lots of welfare benefits to single mothers. They also think that it’s a very bad idea to have children brought up in families where adults aren’t working and in lone parent families or fatherless families. Moral panic and fear of breakdown in social fabric due to lone parent families.

New Right sociologists believe that the increase in lone-parent and reconstituted families and the easier access to divorce have led to a breakdown in traditional values. They say that this causes social problems such as crime increase.

I do believe we are on a new idea now, these ideas seem a little out dated.

Sociology is an academic and applied discipline that studies society and human social interaction. One useful way to describe the discipline is as a cluster of sub-disciplines (sometimes called fields) that examine different dimensions of society. For example, social stratification studies inequality and class structure; demography studies changes in a population size or type; criminology examines criminal behavior and deviance; political sociology studies government and laws; and the sociology of race and sociology of gender examine the social construction of race and gender as well as race and gender inequality. New sociological fields and sub-fields—such as network analysis and environmental sociology—continue to evolve; many of them are cross-disciplinary in nature. Sociological research provides educators, planners, lawmakers, administrators, developers, business leaders, and people interested in resolving social problems and formulating public policy with rationales for the actions that they take.

There has never been a better time to put and end to the heartache of an unfulfilling relationship. You can rebuild the happiness and close connection, thanks to the life-changing techniques at https://tr.im/2wMLE

Marriage, like life, is a cycle of ups and downs. It’s easy to say your marriage is in good health when the world around you is prospering, but when your fortunes turn and your world is in hardship, how you interact within your marriage can often paint an altogether different picture.

This isn’t a proper question. I clicked on it hoping the description would be of any use, but I simply can’t help you. I think you should consider this as an err… practice question and try again.
