Welcome to c/sociology!

Sociology is a social science that focuses on society, human social behavior, patterns of social relationships, social interaction, and aspects of culture associated with everyday life. In simple words sociology is the scientific study of society. It uses various methods of empirical investigation and critical analysis to develop a body of knowledge about social order and social change. While some sociologists conduct research that may be applied directly to social policy and welfare, others focus primarily on refining the theoretical understanding of social processes and phenomenological method. Subject matter can range from micro-level analyses of society (i.e. of individual interaction and agency) to macro-level analyses (i.e. of social systems and social structure). Read more...

MODERATORS
 

Hi, I'm Arxir!

I volunteered to moderate this community and would like to introduce myself and also get some input from You on what You want this community to be.

About Me

I studied Sociology at a university with an empirical and quantitative focus. In my thesis I analyzed police brutality during protests against police brutality through a relational lens.

I would like this community to not only be a bucket for links to sociological papers, news articles and blog posts, but also a place of discussion and a platform for exchange and educational/professional guidance.

My thoughts on achieving this are to provide a more detailed introduction to sociology in the side bar, a weekly open chat and to encourage You to share your thoughts and theories, because we have to open ourselves up for criticism to be able to learn. Therefore, there is no wrong thought to share here.

Now I would like to hear from You. Who are You? What are Your thoughts? What do You want this community to be? And what do You think can be done to achieve this?

Lastly, I would like to add, that if You are interested in managing this community and sharing mod duties, please feel free to write an application, where you outline your experience with Sociology and Moderating as a comment here or as a direct message. Thoughts on what you would do to improve engagement within this community are a welcome addition.

Kind Regards

Arxir
