chapter 8
1.) Observe a primary and secondary group in the campus and
document the manner of interactions of the individuals within. Take
note of the behaviors and actions that connote each of the elements of
primary and secondary groups.
chapter 9
1.) Watch the movie "Titanic". Observe and study the passengers'
behavior during the incident of the sinking of the cruise ship and
discuss their behavior using your knowledge about panic and mass
hysteria.
As I observed from the film "Titanic", the crowd begins to panic at the
moment they realize that their life is in danger beacause the ship
suddenly became unstable. The crowd began to panic and done
everything to escape from the ship.

Engraved in the facade of the Cebu provincial capitol building are the
words that state that: Sovereignty resides in the people and all
government authority emanates from them.
This quotation is the essence of a democratic state government. That
being the case, the full ambit of such a principle is stated in the
Constitution of the United States that when a government becomes
inimical to the interests of the people, it is the right of the people to
change or abolish that government (or words to that effect).
Revolutions are therefore a recognized radical mode of changing even
a democratically elected government. There is a caveat that those who
engage in revolutions or coups supported by the people better make
sure that their extraordinary exercise of that inherent right succeeds in
the toppling over of the government. In which case the people who led
the revolution become the heroes, and those who were ousted end up
as the losers. In ancient times, the losers even lost their heads as in
the French revolution which ended with the execution of King Louis XVI
and his Queen Marie Antoinette. In that revolution, the original leaders
also lost theirs via the guillotine when they started fighting each other
ie. from my unrealiable memory some of them were Danton, Marat,
and Robes Pierre. The saying Liberty, how many crimes have been
committed in thy name! originated from that revolution. To stop the
chaos and instability, the revolutionary council appointed a Corsican
officer of the army who forthwith installed artillery in the street corners
of Paris. He instructed the soldiers to fire at any rioters. That action
restored stability. The officers name, was Napoleon Bonaparte. The
French revolutions aim was to establish a government of liberty,
fraternity, and equality as opposed to the absolute powers of the King.
3.) Explain how a crowd becomes a mob which turns into a riot.
Philippine police have stormed a hijacked bus and shot dead a former
police officer who had taken a group of Hong Kong tourists hostage.

chapter 8
1.) Observe a primary and secondary group in the campus and document the manner of
interactions of the individuals within. Take note of the behaviors and actions that connote
each of the elements of primary and secondary groups.
-they tend to be small and are ordinarily composed of fewer than 15 to 20 individuals;
-interaction and communication among members in the basketball team tend to be of an
intimate and personal nature;
-members commonly develop strong emotion bonds with other members; and
-they generally persist over extensive periods of time.
2.) Choose an office in the university organization and analyze when, where and how the
dysfunctionalities of bureaucracy are exhibited in this office. Make recommendations to
reduce if not eliminate these dysfunctionalities.
I strongly recomend that they must try not to exhibit the dysfunctionalities of bureaucracy
in order to function properly as a group and as an organization.
chapter 9
1.) Watch the movie "Titanic". Observe and study the passengers' behavior during the
incident of the sinking of the cruise ship and discuss their behavior using your knowledge
about panic and mass hysteria.
According to Tischler, quoting Janis and his colleagues, people do not panic unless four
conditions are met.
First, people must feel that they are trapped in a life-threatening situation. Second, they
must perceive a threat to their safety that is so large that they do little else but try to
escape. Third, they must realize that their escape routes are limited or inaccessible. and
last. ther must be breakdown of communication between the front and rear of the crowd.
As I observed from the film "Titanic", the crowd begins to panic at the moment they
realize that their life is in danger beacause the ship suddenly became unstable. The crowd
began to panic and done everything to escape from the ship.
Mass Hysteria occurs when large numbers of people are overwhelmed with emotion and
frenzied activity or become convinced that ther experienced something that ivestigators
can fin no discernible evidence.
2.) Read thoroughly about EDSA 2 Revolution. Collect as many information as possible
about event. Collect news clippings related to the event and use these to discuss the
development of EDSA 2 with the help of the Value-Added Theory of Neil Smelser. Be
sure to identify the events corresponding to the conditions of the value-added theory.
Weeks after EDSA 2, Estrada insisted that he never really resigned and therefore is still
the president of the republic. He added that Gloria Arroyo is merely an acting president.
Estrada insisted on these in order to gain immunity from the plunder and other criminal
charges filed against him. The law states that the president of the Philippines and other
high ranking public officials have immunity from criminal charges filed against them
until their term expires. However, the Justices of the Supreme Court, basing from the
actions of the former president during his last hours in Malacanang, unanimously agreed
that he undoubtedly resigned from office and because of this, he is no longer the
president and no longer enjoys immunity from criminal charges filed against him.
Estrada appealed the supreme court's decision, but the appeal was unanimously denied.
During the last week of April 2001, Estrada was arrested for plunder charges. The
supporters of Estrada protested the arrest by staging what they called "EDSA 3." It lasted
for nearly four days. It was reported that most of these people were "paid" to go to
EDSA by public officials who are close allies with the former president. They demanded
Estrada's return to power even though there is absolutely no constitutional way he can
return to office. Prominent allies of Estrada in politics persuaded the protestors to march
towards Malacanang. However, they abandoned these rowdy rallyists afterwards. At
early morning of May 1, pro-Estrada rallyists marched to Malacanang and attempted to
enter the residential palace. Military men have already barricaded it, and using maximum
tolerance, made the unruly pro-Estrada crowd retreat. The supporters of Estrada created
a riot by throwing rocks, burning cars, destroying police stations, hurting policemen and
even news reporters. They failed in their endeavor to bring Estrada back to power. They,
along with other prominent Estrada allies who persuaded them to march to Malacanang
were accused of “rebellion”. By the unquestionably rude and violent actions perpetrated
by these Estrada supporters, this gathering cannot be truly called EDSA 3 because rallies
in EDSA are always characterized by peaceful, non-violent protests.
1.) Explain the main difference between individual decision making process vs.
organization decision making process.
2.) Explain the concept of demorcracy. Choose any government organization and explain
how democracy is implemented in that department.

3.) Explain how a crowd becomes a mob which turns into a riot.
An acting crowd turning violent is called a mob. Due to intense emotion of the crowd, the
mob tends to dissipate quickly.
Riot is a crowd without any particular purpose, a social eruption that is highly emotional,
violent, and undirected. Crowd through distinguished from one another depending on
type or kind can shift from one type to another.
Spectators in an UAAP game might start as an expressive crowd, but as the games
progresses and their emotions are fed by each others' promptings, this type might evolve
into an acting crowd espacially when thery perceive that the games authorities are
favoring one team against the other.
4.) Site an example that will demonstrate either possitive or negative effects of media in
culture.
Philippine police have stormed a hijacked bus and shot dead a former police officer who
had taken a group of Hong Kong tourists hostage.

Value-Added Theory is developed by Neil Smelser. Value Added Theory attempts to explain
whether collective behavior will occur and what direction it will take Smelser explains that
collectivities emerge as a product of the combination of six conditions. These are structural
conduciveness, structural strain, growth and spread of generalized belief, precipitating
factor, mobilization for action and mechanism of social control.

a democratically elected government. There is a caveat that those who
engage in revolutions or coups supported by the people better make
sure that their extraordinary exercise of that inherent right succeeds in
the toppling over of the government. In which case the people who led
the revolution become the heroes, and those who were ousted end up
as the losers. In ancient times, the losers even lost their heads as in
the French revolution which ended with the execution of King Louis XVI
and his Queen Marie Antoinette. In that revolution, the original leaders
also lost theirs via the guillotine when they started fighting each other
ie. from my unrealiable memory some of them were Danton, Marat,
and Robes Pierre. The saying Liberty, how many crimes have been
committed in thy name! originated from that revolution. To stop the
chaos and instability, the revolutionary council appointed a Corsican
officer of the army who forthwith installed artillery in the street corners
of Paris. He instructed the soldiers to fire at any rioters. That action
restored stability. The officers name, was Napoleon Bonaparte. The
French revolutions aim was to establish a government of liberty,
fraternity, and equality as opposed to the absolute powers of the King.
3.) Explain how a crowd becomes a mob which turns into a riot.
Philippine police have stormed a hijacked bus and shot dead a former
police officer who had taken a group of Hong Kong tourists hostage.

1.) Observe a primary and secondary group in the campus and
document the manner of interactions of the individuals within. Take
note of the behaviors and actions that connote each of the elements of
primary and secondary groups.
chapter 9
1.) Watch the movie "Titanic". Observe and study the passengers'
behavior during the incident of the sinking of the cruise ship and
discuss their behavior using your knowledge about panic and mass
hysteria.
As I observed from the film "Titanic", the crowd begins to panic at the
moment they realize that their life is in danger beacause the ship
suddenly became unstable. The crowd began to panic and done
everything to escape from the ship.
Weeks after EDSA 2, Estrada insisted that he never really resigned and
therefore is still the president of the republic. He added that Gloria
Arroyo is merely an acting president. Estrada insisted on these in
order to gain immunity from the plunder and other criminal charges
filed against him. The law states that the president of the Philippines
and other high ranking public officials have immunity from criminal
charges filed against them until their term expires. However, the
Justices of the Supreme Court, basing from the actions of the former
president during his last hours in Malacanang, unanimously agreed
that he undoubtedly resigned from office and because of this, he is no
longer the president and no longer enjoys immunity from criminal
charges filed against him. Estrada appealed the supreme court's
decision, but the appeal was unanimously denied.
During the last week of April 2001, Estrada was arrested for plunder
charges. The supporters of Estrada protested the arrest by staging
what they called "EDSA 3." It lasted for nearly four days. It was
reported that most of these people were "paid" to go to EDSA by public
officials who are close allies with the former president. They
demanded Estrada's return to power even though there is absolutely
no constitutional way he can return to office. Prominent allies of
Estrada in politics persuaded the protestors to march towards
Malacanang. However, they abandoned these rowdy rallyists
afterwards. At early morning of May 1, pro-Estrada rallyists marched
to Malacanang and attempted to enter the residential palace. Military
men have already barricaded it, and using maximum tolerance, made
the unruly pro-Estrada crowd retreat. The supporters of Estrada
created a riot by throwing rocks, burning cars, destroying police
stations, hurting policemen and even news reporters. They failed in
their endeavor to bring Estrada back to power. They, along with other
prominent Estrada allies who persuaded them to march to Malacanang
were accused of “rebellion”. By the unquestionably rude and violent
actions perpetrated by these Estrada supporters, this gathering cannot
be truly called EDSA 3 because rallies in EDSA are always
characterized by peaceful, non-violent protests.
Cultural Anthropology
Engraved in the facade of the Cebu provincial capitol building are the
words that state that: Sovereignty resides in the people and all
government authority emanates from them.
This quotation is the essence of a democratic state government. That
being the case, the full ambit of such a principle is stated in the
Constitution of the United States that when a government becomes
inimical to the interests of the people, it is the right of the people to
change or abolish that government (or words to that effect).
Revolutions are therefore a recognized radical mode of changing even
a democratically elected government. There is a caveat that those who
engage in revolutions or coups supported by the people better make
sure that their extraordinary exercise of that inherent right succeeds in
the toppling over of the government. In which case the people who led
the revolution become the heroes, and those who were ousted end up
as the losers. In ancient times, the losers even lost their heads as in
