Social Disorganization
Research Questions
The research question is to test the previous sample against our research sampling of social disorganized and inequality within high-risk urban communities/neighborhoods in the states of Georgia and South Carolina, and thereby examine whether there is adequate variation that exists between those communities/neighborhoods that will supply useful data for this analysis. The following research questions will need to be addressed which are:
1) “What is the association between each of the neighborhoods social processes and their social structural physiognomies (e.g., racial and ethnic diversity, single family households and poverty level)” (Kingston, Huizinga, & Elliott, 2009, p. 57)? Basically, what is the comparative strength …show more content…
Researchers are very concern and have noticed that this issue seems to be a big concern and should not be ignored, because of all the violent crimes that tend to surround these communities or neighborhoods. But, the problem can be very difficult to isolate because there are so many factors that could give researcher many answers as to why this keeps happening, but it would not give us many real solutions. For example, some of the factors that can be viewed are: lack of informal social control, stemming from high residential mobility, population heterogeneity, concentrated poverty, and family dissolution (Sampson & Wilson, 1995, …show more content…
The other problem to address for this research is, to find out why are they so incapable of maintaining informal social control over local juveniles and their residential areas (Cullen & Agnew, 2006, pp. 12-13). Then by answering the above question/problems researchers will gain a better insight to why inequalities and social disorganization is such a major problem for the lower class communities verses the other concentric zone communities? By gaining additional data this research will be able to add to current information on the continuous study of social disorganization and inequality as long as the integrity is held in
