Spring SOCI A123F Foundations of Social Sciences: Sociology 英文 5 *# English 社会科学基础课程：社 会学 Sociology studies society in a critical manner. To be CRITICAL means you don’t take things for granted, i.e., you don’t just take things as they appear to be. You ought to examine people, their lives, behaviours, etc. but not as unrelated. Studying people sociologically means making attempts to discover interesting features and patterns about them. Sociological enquiry is about thinking beyond what you can see — a more professional term for this ability is ‘sociological imagination’. If you always like to ‘tickle’ your mind, you have got the potential for a ‘sociological imagination’ already. If you can organize your thoughts to form an argument (or a theory) and are curious enough to look for evidences 6 Term Course Code Course Title Language Credits Mode / Remarks Brief Description systematically to support your argument, you have the great potential to be a sociologist! To make it possible for you to do so, you will be introduced to a number of analytical tools and skills in this course (the more professional sayings are perspectives, theories and concepts). These analytical tools and skills will help you understand things around you in a ‘sociological way’. We do not expect you would become a fullfledged sociologist after the course. But we do hope that you will be a lot more conscious of the underlying features and patterns of social life and be able to ask more interesting yet meaningful questions about the society you live in.
