The essay should include information from the following books. - The communist manifesto, Karl Marx - The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism, Max Weber - The End of History, Francis Fukuyama - Rules of Sociological Method, & amp;amp;#201;mile Durkheim You could slightly change the thesis if you want and maybe focus it. I think we should however focus Mainly on The communist Manifesto as that’s the book that I actually have read and know a lot about. Here are some of the points that I think we could add to the essay, -People are moving away from local and family markets to multinational cheaper larger stores such as Wal-Mart -I need to write this paper keeping in mind that as Durkeim puts it & amp;amp;quot; the purpose of history is precisely to link up events in their sequence & amp;amp;quot; so I need to try and do that in this essay. -Marx believes that Industries destroy family ties and also believes that the modern family is based solely on capital and private gain. -Marx believes that family is just anther mode of production. He also says that family are means of transforming children into articles of commerce. -Foucault mentions that family is not an old concept was constructed through process. -When understanding Family structure you have to look at it from the outside and look at the discourse and how it came about. -Durkheim believes that everything family is just something that we came upon he says that & amp;amp;quot; when I perform my duties as a brother , a husband or a citizen and carry out the commitment I have entered into. I fulfil obligation which are defined in law and custom and which are external to myself and my actions & amp;amp;quot; -Durkeim also says & amp;amp;quot;he formation of the society as a function of the advantages which flow from cooperation & amp;amp;quot; -The idea of the formation of the family as Durkheim would say is the same everywhere & amp;amp;quot; the maternal family and clan are observed everywhere & amp;amp;quot; I will send more notes to you as soon as I can get the quotes from the other books, I however didn’t really read the protestant work ethics of weber and I think that he talks about it a lot soo it''ll be good if you could mention him It is necessary that no outside source is used and if it is then it is cited and footnoted and a works cited in the end, it is really vital that you should do that, cause they check it through a cheating programe and I could get kicked out.
