Sociological Perspective

Q In his talk, Mark Sutcliffe discussed how winning the "ovarian lottery" can impact a person's life chances. Similarly, Sam Richards compels us to use empathy to see how a person's life is shaped by "invisible forces". How did you see the sociological perspective on social problems illustrated in each of their talks? How do their talks emphasize a focus on public issues rather than personal troubles? Describe at least one specific example mentioned in each video and explain how and why each example demonstrates a sociological analysis of social problems as explained in chapter 1 of the textbook and module 2.

Mark Sutcliffe and Sam Richards both have compelled a fact that an individual’s life can be changed through different sociological forces. I see that the sociological perspective on social problems can be illustrated through their talks. Being a philanthropist, media influencer, investor and business person, Mark has established own point of determining sociological problems. Mark has stated about him own motivational factors in work (Sutcliffe, 2019).
