Henslin, What is Sociology? (H)
As many know sociology has to do with social science, as it mentions in the name sociology, but what exactly is it. Sociology is unique compared to other social sciences. Political science, studies of government. Social science focuses on past events, important people, ideas, social institutions, and social movements. Economics takes interest in human life no matter how much is consumed and produced. Psychology is what an individual is going through in the mind and brain, can be emotional a perspective, memory, dream and even inelegance. Sociology is similar to social science but focusing more on the social aspect on how a group of people behave or not even based on random grouping but by religion, sex ethnic, wealth class, and exedra.
Using juvenile delinquency as an example. Sociology comes in when trying to figure out why gangs form in certain locations, ethnic, and wealth class. political science would not dive into this topic, but if they did they would look into gangs. An historian would look into the past settings, social context, exedra. Economics would look into how much has been stolen materially or properties destroyed because they will need to hire workers. But an Anthropologist would be interested in this topic as they will examine a juvenile delinquency as in gangs see who the leader and why, what does the leader provide back. Observe the activities, culture, ethnicity, characteristics, age, sex, and education. A psychologist and sociologist would also have a great interest with a juvenile delinquency in aspects of aggression, personal traits, sex, and insecurities and many other things. A sociologist ignores the person’s personality and searches on the way a person behaves in a social group and examines the individuals’ behaviors and detention and incarceration. They would also focus on how they interact once they are set back free into the community.
In sociology, it is studied two different types of socializing; in group membership, and face to face interaction. In a group an individual’s behavior changes according to how that individual feels about that group or the conversational topic. This is known as structural. Face to face or interactional concludes that individuals’ attitudes change significantly their lives.
