Answer to Question 1

Resocialization is the process of learning a new and different set of attitudes, values, and behaviors from those in one's background and previous experience. Resocialization may be voluntary or involuntary.

Resocialization is voluntary when we assume a new status (such as becoming a student, an employee, or a retiree) of our own free will. Involuntary resocialization occurs against a person's wishes and generally takes place within a total institutiona place where people are isolated from the rest of society for a set period of time and come under the control of the officials who run the institutions. Military boot camps, jails and prisons, concentration camps, and some mental hospitals are total institutions. In these settings, people are totally stripped of their former selvesor depersonalized through a degradation ceremony. After stripping people of their former identities, the institution attempts to build a more compliant person. A system of rewards and punishments (such as providing or withholding television or exercise privileges) encourages conformity to institutional norms.
