Class Description:
This course introduces the pivotal questions that underpin classical and contemporary sociological perspectives. Analysis of how society is possible and how social order is maintained are core to an understanding of individuals as both agents and objects that shape and are shaped by their membership in society.

The course explores diverse sociological theories purporting to explain the social, political and economic structures prevailing in our society.
