Content
The unit introduces students to the sociological study of everyday life, and the concepts and theories used by sociologists to analyse contemporary social issues and social change. Students will learn to apply the sociological imagination to areas such as health, family, youth, social movements, racism, crime, religion and sport. As part of this inquiry, this unit explores the role that race, gender, education, geographic location, age, culture, identity, and other structural factors play in shaping individual and communal life.
