Sociology

Sociology is the systematic study of society, social relationships, and social institutions. It examines the ways in which individuals interact with one another and how these interactions are shaped by various factors such as culture, norms, values, and social structures. Sociologists analyze a range of topics, including social behavior, group dynamics, social change, and the impact of social identities such as race, gender, and class. The discipline seeks to understand the underlying patterns and functions of social life, exploring both macro-level phenomena (such as societal trends and institutions) and micro-level interactions (such as individual behaviors and interpersonal relationships). Through empirical research and theoretical frameworks, sociology aims to provide insights into societal issues and contribute to the understanding of human behavior in a social context.
