Theory is a theory of development that holds that children internalize gender scripts that reflect the gender-related social practices of the culture.

Gender-Schema Theory

Explanation:

Psychologist Sandra Bern introduced Gender-Schema Theory in 1981. It is a cognitive theory of gender development in which children learn gender roles from the culture they belong to. Children from the earliest stage of social development aligned themselves to the gender roles ascribed to them by their culture. The theory defines gender as a result of cultural norms.

panem is a communist totalitarian dictatorship where all the resources and how they are allocated belongs to the capitol. the districts exist only to provide goods and services for the capital and most of the citizens live in poverty. it is a police state where the "peacekeepers" use force and threats to keep the people under control. dissent is outlawed and those who disobey the law are executed, flogged, or turned into avoxes. the games are another means in which the ruling elite in the capitol exert their power over the districts. when reading the books i drew parallels between panem and the soviet union and north korea. in no way is panem capitalist. the people in the capitol are wealthy but the majority of them are involved in the government somehow. it was the same way in the former soviet union where bigwigs in the communist party and high ranking government officials were given access to goods, services, medical treatments not available to the general public. if you think panem has a capitalist economy you need to brush up on your economics.
