This last group assignment offers you the opportunity to practice the skills you need for your final paper.

Lifbuoy Ad

Transcript of the ad .txt file

Examine this advertisement for Lifebuoy soap. The ad describes a cultural change. Discuss any or all of the following questions to demonstrate your understanding of culture and cultural change?

  • What part of culture changed?
  • How did this change affect individuals?
  • What are the causes of this cultural change?
  • What might Ritzer say about this ad?

Because this is the last group discussion and I know everyone is busy at the end of the term and next weekend is Memorial Day, I’m going to push back the due date for posting to Tuesday, June 1. If more convenient, you can post earlier but I hope you will take the extra time to really explore this topic.
