Sociology

We hear words like ‘culture’, ‘power’ and ‘society’ used often, but what do they really mean?

In Sociology, we explore big questions such as;

• Why is society the way it is? 

• What is ‘youth’ and how does your experience of youth differ from those in previous generations?

• What is ‘normal’ and who decides what is ‘normal’

• What is family and how is it defined across culture and time? 

• Who holds power in society? 

• How is ‘deviance’ defined across culture and context? 

• Why do people commit crimes?
