Sociology

Sociology is the systematic study of society, social relationships, and social institutions. It examines how individuals and groups interact, the patterns of social behavior, and the structures that organize societies, including norms, values, and cultures. Sociologists analyze various aspects of social life, such as class, race, gender, family, education, and organizations, to understand the dynamics of social order, change, and conflict. By employing both qualitative and quantitative research methods, sociology aims to uncover the underlying social forces that shape human behavior and societal trends, contributing to a deeper comprehension of social issues and the functioning of communities.
