SOCI 133 - Introduction to Sociology: Rules for the Game of LifeFC SSCI 4 credits Every person’s “game” of life begins the same: we are born. Yet, lives unfold in a multitude of ways. This course uses a sociological framework to unpack the written and unwritten rules of life. Why are some people equipped with advantages, while others accumulate disadvantages? What are some of the taken-for-granted aspects of life that go under the radar? We will read classical and contemporary sociological works on topics such as power, inequality, socialization, culture, and social control to better understand how sociologists study society and interpret individuals’ trajectories.
This course is appropriate for new students.
