Social Loafing01:37

Social Loafing

39.7K
Another way in which a group presence can affect performance is social loafing—the exertion of less effort by a person working together with a group. Social loafing occurs when our individual performance cannot be evaluated separately from the group. Thus, group performance declines on easy tasks (Karau & Williams, 1993). Essentially individual group members loaf and let other group members pick up the slack. Because each individual’s efforts cannot be evaluated,...

Social Scripts

10.3K
People tend to know what behavior is expected of them in specific, familiar settings. A script is a person’s knowledge about the sequence of events expected in a specific setting (Schank & Abelson, 1977). Essentially, scripts are a particular kind of schema, one containing default values for the features within an event. In the restaurant example, the script's features include the props (e.g., tables, menu, food, and money), the roles to be played (e.g., customer and waiter),...

Social Traps01:41

Social Traps

26.9K
Social traps are negative situations where people get caught in a direction or relationship that later proves to be unpleasant, with no easy way to back out of or avoid. The concept was orignally introduced by John Platt who applied psychology to Garrett Hardin's "Tragedy of the Commons", where in New England herd owners could let their cattle graze in the common ground. This situation seems like a good idea, but an individual could have an advantage. If they owned...

Fischer Projections02:18

Fischer Projections

16.6K
Learning to draw Fischer projections of molecules and understanding their relevance plays a crucial role in the visual depiction of organic molecules. A Fischer projection is a two-dimensional projection on a planar surface to simplify the three-dimensional wedge–dash representation of molecules. This is especially helpful in the case of molecules with multiple chiral centers that can be difficult to draw. Here, all the bonds of interest are represented as horizontal or vertical lines. While...

Summary

The BRICS bloc (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) prioritizes social issues for global influence. While poverty decreased, social commitment results are weak due to national differences and geopolitical aims.

Area of Science:

  • International Relations
  • Development Studies
  • Political Economy

Background:

  • BRICS, comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, is a non-Western multilateral group.
  • The group aims to reshape global geopolitics and markets, emphasizing equitable development for emerging nations.
  • Social issues are central to BRICS's stated objectives and global positioning.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the extent and nature of BRICS's engagement with social issues.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of BRICS's social commitments from 2009 to 2017.

Main Methods:

  • Bibliographic research.
  • Documentary analysis of official BRICS Summit Declarations (2009-2017).

Main Results:

  • Social issues were crucial for establishing BRICS's global presence and project.
  • Some social indicators improved, and poverty was reduced across member nations.
  • Progress on many social commitments remains limited, with weak outcomes observed.

Conclusions:

  • BRICS's social issue engagement is constrained by national contexts and internal disparities.
  • The non-binding nature of BRICS initiatives and the prioritization of geopolitical/market goals may hinder social progress.
  • Despite strategic global positioning, social issues appear secondary to broader geopolitical and economic objectives within BRICS.
