GCSE Sociology Revision - Poverty and Deprivation (Episode 17)

Описание: Hello again! I’m back and doing my final video on the topic of Stratification and Differentiation, and today it’s all about Poverty and Deprivation. In this episode, I aim to give an overview of everything you need to know for this topic if you’re studying the Eduqas GCSE Sociology course, but it’s also handy if you take other Sociology courses that require a knowledge of poverty and deprivation.

In this video, I cover the following things:
Poverty overview – What is poverty, types of poverty, causes of poverty, consequences of poverty – 01:15 – 08:55
Poverty and social groups – How poverty is related to social class, ethnicity, gender, disability and age - 08:56 – 18:05 (for more on social groups and differentiation in society, watch episodes 15 and 16)
Theory and poverty – the views of Functionalists, the New Right, Marxists and Feminists – 18:06 – 23:52 (for more on sociological theories and stratification, see episodes 13, 14 and 15)
Deprivation – What is deprivation, linking deprivation and poverty, Townsend’s (1979) Relative Deprivation Index, Material deprivation, Cultural deprivation, Culture of poverty, Cycle of Deprivation - 23:53 – 29:09
10 key terms to know – Absolute poverty, Relative poverty, Relative deprivation, Material deprivation, Cultural deprivation, Social groups (Class, Ethnicity, Gender, Disability, Age), Theory links (Functionalism, New Right, Marxism, Feminism), Underclass, Culture of poverty, Cycle of deprivation – 29:10 – 31:57
A word on exams, with a 9 mark question and answer walkthrough – ‘Those living in poverty need to change the way they live to improve their lives.’ Do you agree with this view? 31:58 – 36:54
Recap and Outro – 36:55 – 39:24

The video is aimed at GCSE Sociology Eduqas students but will also be useful as a recap to those studying different exam boards, e.g. AQA Sociology and/or those studying at a higher level, particularly if you’re newer to the subject.
