Course summary

Sociology is the study of society and its institutions (families, media, educational, criminal, religious and political). It investigates how people create society through their relationships and the ways in which society shapes people’s behaviour and ideas. Sociology is a critical subject because it avoids obvious or common sense explanations of human activity, such as changes in divorce, crime, education, searching instead for explanations at a deeper level.
