SOC 315 - Society and the Individual


Credits: (3)
This course stresses the sociological perspective on individuals and social interaction. There is no society without individuals and human individuals are innately social; we are not fully human without society. This course will examine language and communication, the self, early, childhood, and adult socialization, social roles, groups, interpersonal attraction, morality and deviance, stigma and the management of problematic identities, culture and identity, and the influence of the media on identity. The class will emphasize ethnographic fieldwork and the interactionist tradition in sociology.
