What divides us? What causes inequalities? How does the media influence our lives?

Sociology is the study of human activity in societies. It’s concerned with group interactions and their consequences. It’s about questioning the social world and how it fits together.

 

Sociologists research human experience and offer new perspectives. They explore diverse topics—from race and gender, to religion, love and war.
