 1) Summary 

Deviance refers to behavior that violates social, moral, or legal norms and can range from infidelity in relationships, fraud or sexual harassment in the workplace, and plagiarism in the academic field. These actions may lead to direct harm to individuals, organizations or all aspects of society, such as destroying relationships, damaging reputations, and triggering legal liability. In order to prevent and respond to deviant behavior, it is recommended to strengthen moral education, establish a sound regulatory mechanism and system, strengthen legal binding, and promote a fair and honest code of conduct. Wikipedia may also mention examples of deviance or research results to help readers gain a deeper understanding of the topic.


2)What I learned?

As can be seen from the article, deviant behavior often occurs in areas with high crime rates, and is also inextricably linked to gender and race. Another way in which crime statistics can go beyond simply reporting incidents of criminal activity is by highlighting the differences between different groups. One difference in criminal activity is the number of violent crimes by gender; Men are more likely than women to commit violent crimes. On the other hand, the criminal justice system in the United States has a significant impact on the life chances of racial and ethnic minorities, especially people of African descent.


3) Questions

In different cultural and social contexts, people's perceptions of what constitutes "deviant behavior" may differ. So, how do you determine the criteria for deviant behavior and how do you balance the relationship between individual rights and social norms?

After watching “Why Wikipedia” and “How to Leave (and Read) a Wikipedia Talk Message,” and reading the introduction materials from Joseph Reagle’s Good Faith Collaboration, I’ve come to see that Wikipedia is more than a website—it’s a community built on trust, transparency, and a shared belief in the value of open knowledge. The “Why Wikipedia” video explains that Wikipedia is driven by a radical idea: anyone can edit. This openness has obvious risks, but surprisingly, it works. Why? Because Wikipedians follow a core principle called “good faith.” The idea is that editors assume others are acting with good intentions. They might disagree or make mistakes, but they are seen as partners in a shared mission, not enemies. This idea of good faith collaboration is explored deeply in Reagle’s writings. In the Foreword, Lawrence Lessig praises Wikipedia as an ...

China and Globalization The relationship between China and globalization is one of the most significant themes in 21st-century international politics, economics, and cultural exchange. As the world's second-largest economy and the largest developing country, China plays multiple roles in the globalization process: as a beneficiary, a driver, and a participant in shaping the rules.   Historical Background   Reform and Opening-Up & Globalization   China's adoption of the reform and opening-up policy in 1978 marked the beginning of its full integration into the globalization process. [1]   By introducing foreign investment and joining international economic organizations (such as the World Trade Organization), China gradually transformed from an agriculture-based nation into a global manufacturing hub.   Accession to the WTO   In 2001, China joined the World Trade Organization (WTO) [2] , a critical milestone in the globalization process.
