How the study of sociology helps us to understand different societies.
Sociology allows us to understand how different groups of people act
the way they do, and also brings us into their cultures, heritage’s and
different backgrounds. This study also explains how culture play’s a role in
the way different groups act, and how it reflects on their society. There
are many social issues that sociology explains, such as how larger social and
historical forces effect the way the communities act and how individuals
act. All of these topics stress how sociology important in your family">important sociology is today, and how

In today’s society people are influenced by the way other people live,
and the way people carry out their lives. Other people like to fallow other
peoples values, morals, and how they carry out their responsibilities. All of
these things effects the way an individual lives, and acts, for instance if
The Essay on The Problems Faced by Old People in Our Society
The old age is an integral part of human life. It is the evening of life. It is unavoidable, undesirable, unwelcome and problem- ridden phase of life. An old man is full of experiences and even though experiences are of immense help to the younger generation, he is taken as an unwanted burden. He himself is caught in a terrible feeling of redundancy. Thinking of old age visions of loneliness and ...
people go to school to get an education and get a well paying job. Many
people are going to do the same thing just to be in the same class and
society, and make the money to have what everyone else has. The
importance of education in today’s world is very important in getting that
job that pays exceptional well. In today’s society people go to school get a
good job and a few years after getting established they start a family. In
the past people sometimes graduated highschool and starting a family was
more important then getting that well paid job.
There are many benefits in having an social imagination. With the
imagination people know how to live their lives, and know how to fit in to a
group. They fit into a group to feel welcomed and not like an outsider.
Feeling part of a group also give a person self confidence in a lot of the
things they do. With that confidence they can accomplish almost any task
that comes in their way. Many people in today’s societies also like to take
examples of other people and apply them to their lives to better them
selves. In doing this they live their lives to the fullest and not wishing they
had done something different. Sociological imagination is a very important
step in the study of sociology because if the imagination is understood it is
easier to understand how a society fits in together. Its sort of like a
culture in a way but people adapt an social imagination not inherit it like a
culture.
In today’s societies there are redundent amount of cultures. Some
ways to describe culture is a way a group of people live, or the way they
act, live, communicate, dress, types of food. All of this ties together as
being part of a culture. Mostly people of the same race, nationality live
together or in the same community so it’s not that hard to adapt to
another persons style of living. People do this so that they can fit in easier
and be part of a group so their social imagination is the same as another
The Essay on A Theoretical Approach to Culture and the Study of Its Theory

Our textbook defines culture as the total pattern of human behavior and its products, embodied in thoughts, speech, action and artifacts.

person. The study of sociology studies this aspect of a societies culture.
The study finds out how a culture fits in to the society and how the society
revolves around the culture. It also looks at how different one culture is
from another one, how different backgrounds makes an society different.
If there was a basic building block to the study of sociology, culture would
be it. Everything revolves around culture in a society. Culture hold so many
traits, backgrounds, styles, everything that a society basis their way of
life on. So if a societies culture is understood then that unlocks the door
to understanding how a society works and how it functions.
Ethnocentric is another big step in the study of sociology. It gives a
brief impression on different cultures. Sometimes its bad because its
judgmental on others but it’s also a quick understand on how that culture
works and is. One way that I am judgmental is the way a person dresses.
If I see a person wearing nice cloths all the time and always looks good
then I think their rich or has money. If I see someone wearing worn beat
up cloths then I assume that their not wealthy, dirty, and doesn’t like to
take care of them selves. This judgment of others is bad because I know
from experience. I wear nice cloths and try to look good all the time but I
am not rich or that wealthy. I know kids from my high school who wear
worn, beat up cloths that are really rich, and they wear those cloths
because that’s their style of living. It could be their culture in a sense but
they are just being them selves.
With out the study of sociology many people wouldn’t know where to
begin in how to understand how a society works. The examining of how the
culture works and functions helps us to get a feel of how the different
cultures relate to each and every one’s society. Through this study we get
a whole new view on how the world is oriented on culture and how every
society acts.
