SOC 401WI - Sociological Theory(4 credits; non-yearly, consult department)
In this course, we are going to consider a number of sociological theorists and ideas. We will not attempt a comprehensive examination of theory, either classic or contemporary. Rather, we will dive deeply into a number of texts to explore how theory can give us unique insights into the social world and the ways in which the social world shapes the lives of individuals. And we will contemplate if, instead of just interpreting the world in various ways, these theories suggest ways in which to change it.
Prerequisites: SOC101SS, sociology major or permission of instructor.
