课程简介
Sociology is a discipline built on passion and knowledge. To learn sociology is to develop what C.Wright Mills calls ‘the sociological imagination'. As Mills tells us, without the sociological imagination, individuals often feel their ''private lives are a series of traps'' bound by ''seemingly impersonal changes'' taking place in remote institutions at an intimidating rate of historical change. Without the sociological imagination, social forces and social change can feel overwhelming and beyond the capacity of the individual to effect change. What the sociological imagination gives us is the ''capacity to shift perspective'' and understand the connection between ''the most impersonal and remote transformations'' with ''the most intimate features of the human self.'' Through this new lens, sociology looks beyond the life of the single individual to better understand how larger social structures such as power, economics and culture shape individual life chances, thinking and behavior. With this new imagination, larger social forces come into focus bringing a clearer understanding of the value of the individual in advancing social change.<br><br>It is this ability to ‘shift perspective' which allows sociologists to study some of the most complex and important questions of social life. Sociologists ask questions related to understanding the relevance of social power and social hierarchies such as race, class and gender in everyday life, the processes and implications of social change in both public and private lives including family, labor and sexuality as well as questions related to social and personal health including environmental and health care policy, health disparities and individual well-being.
