  • In this introduction to the discipline of sociology, Dr. Lori Peek overviews the focus, history and approach of sociological inquiry. She defines sociology as the systematic study of society, and the sociological perspective as one that analyzes patterns of individual experience. She identifies several foundation thinkers, including Comte, Marx, Weber and Durkheim, and describes the major theoretical approaches that derive from them. She also focuses on methodological aspects of sociology, defining the scales at which sociologists work and the differences between quantitative and qualitative data gathering and analysis. She highlights some key sociological concepts, including structure and agency, social stratification and inequality. She ends by discussing the future of sociology, and highlights the move toward interdisciplinary work and new methodologies to address wicked problems.

    The most interesting thing about social is learning about human characteristics and their role in society. And also how one's characteristic is different from others

    You see... There are so many different approaches in sociology... And each of them seems to be a true model, a true description of how human society works... Actually, each of them describes some aspect or some level of the real life of human society... And Karl Marx didn't read George Orwell's "1984"... Otherwise, he'd have known that the rebellion of the lowest class, working class, is almost impossible... Without the rule of the Middles...

    The true root cause of all social problems stems directly from the monopolization over the economy and the monetary unit. These are the two factors we use to determine the misery index. And this is solid despite the fact that the misery index is formulated by factoring in the unemployment rate and rate of inflation these two factors are deeply embedded in the more deeper root cause of Monopoly over economy and monetary unit. The accademia does not want the point this out because they themselves operating their own little Monopoly within the greater Monopoly of the world. Hence using government to subsidize their ever-growing paychecks and expanding administrative departments it's a primary example of how they need to continue to propagate falsehoods and point to you only to the symptoms of what's wrong with Society as opposed to the root cause. Welcome to the cult of symptomology. You will spend hundreds of thousands of dollars potentially going to University and never learn this basic hidden truth, which is a very very very important truth as it allows you to escape the cult of symptom ology. Adult only be through economic freedom and a sound monetary unit to represent the fruits of your labour without being subject to inflation that gives you the ability to demonstrate that you were actually free and then ways that you can measure for real value

    It is odd that a has-been economist (Marx) who was proven wrong when all his theories failed the test of reality is a hero in sociology. Her other gods who explained "division of labor" about 1900 yet didn't mention Adam Smith who described specialization, division of labor, and economics of trade quantitatively more than half a century before the sociology heroes.
    Smith's theories have held the test of time and Marx's theories have killed about 75 million people by starvation. Her description of sociology is more like a religion than real science. Real science tests old theories and rejects the ones that don't work. We may use Newton's physics for car collisions but not GPS locations.
