The Sociological Imagination


C. Wright Mills was a professor of sociology at Columbia University in the 1950's. In time I will review many of his books, including; The Sociological Imagination, White Collar, The Power Elite, The Marxists, The Causes of World War III, Character and Social Structure among others. In The Sociological Imagination, Mills draws a distinction between personal troubles and public issues within society. One needs to understand the intersections of history (& the social sciences) and the individual biography to understand and distinguish between personal troubles and public issues that cannot be solved by any one man.

Sociology is a Martial Art -Pierre Bourdieu


" I often say sociology is a martial art, a means of self-defense. Basically, you use it to defend yourself, without having the right to use if for unfair attacks". Pierre Bourdieu Pierre's Bourdieu's forty books and countless articles represent probably the most brilliant and fruitful renovation and application of social science in our era. The highly influential, at times controversial intellectual--a longtime Professor of Sociology at the College de France--passed away in January 2002. A "committed" thinker in the vein of Foucault, his work is concerned with elucidating the processes of symbolic violence and cultural domination in various areas of social life. His most well known book, Distinction (1979), addressed these themes in an effort to overcome the opposition of objectivist (Marxist) and subjectivist (Weberian) theories of class. In the late nineties he became something of a celebrity scholar, one of the world's most important academics actively associated with the anti-globalization movement. Bourdieu himself argued that scholars and writers could and should bring their specialized knowledge to bear on social and political issues. His powerful critiques of the neoliberal revolution were the natural outgrowth of a lifetime of research into economic, social and cultural class domination among peoples as disparate as Algerian peasants and French professors, and as expressed in everything from amateur photography to posture.

Sociology experiment


If it is that easy for me to trick you then how much easier would it be for the media to trick you. If you were born in NAZI Germany, you would blindly follow the propaganda without question. You would be sending Jews to the gas chambers, just like you want to send Muslims to Gitmo bay. Many Americans think that we should nuke the Middle East but it's funny because the majority of Muslims live in Malaysia. When are we as human being going to learn how to live together? This video was just a sociology experiment. The sad fact is that most people will probably believe what they want to believe. They want to believe that Muslims are evil and so they give my story credibility. Are all Muslims bad? Are all Iraqis bad? Did you know that there are lots of Americans who are living and working in the Middle East. Why don't you ask them what it is like there. They should know since they live there. Why don't you get some first hand info. Why don't you meet a Muslim in real life and then form an opinion. Why don't you read the Quran first and then form an opinion.

The Three Minute Sociologist: Deviance? (uh oh, you'll need 8 minutes!)


How often have you said Wow, thats weird? Whats going on there? Your personal collection of experiences Things that youve learned as right or wrong How does a sociologist see this? a. Its about norms. Rules for living come from our culture, from groups around us and our personal understanding of these rules  come from cultural values, beliefs and ultimately from attitudes b. Deviance is some departure from the normative order Notice not abnormal but the normative order. c. In this brief overview Ill look at only a part of deviance basically three things 1. Deviance isnt always bad. 2. Deviance may be primary or secondary 3. And deviance has at least two seemingly contradictory functions

The Three Minute Sociologist: Soc Imagination and Perspective - Tools Across Cultures?


Some sociological perspective tools I carry with me: 1. Cultures exist look for them patterned ways of life, beliefs, values norms. . I may not understand the culture in which I find myself, but I know there is a way of life there I must discover what it is. There are formal and informal rules look for them. Things have cultural relative meanings. Survival may hinge on whether I can determine the meaning. 2. Human action is organized, hence structured look for the patterns in what people do. This is true for normative and deviant events. There are status hierarchies .. some people are viewed to be more important. Your job who are they and why are they seen this way? 3. There are power and influence centers in human social systems these two are also formal and informal. 4. Social change occurs at a variety of speeds and in a variety of ways 5. Some social phenomena exist because they are simply collectively defined that way. 6. We are both autobiographical and biographical others, the historic definition and position

New Sociology 101: All Life Considered with Desteni


How we have Isolated Humans through "Special-ization" in a particular field of study. What is being taught in School through the study of Human Life, "Sociology", is isolating human beings into believing that Life=Human, and that nothing else in this physical reality is "Life", everything else is just "objects" My experience watching Desteni Videos of all Life coming through the Portal, giving perspective and common sense. Human Beings, we are not all that is, all that exists in this physical reality is real and is A-Life, Alive. Humans cannot be studied as separate from Reality Here!

The Three Minute Sociologist (uh oh, this one is 6 minutes!): One view of Functionalism


One view of Structural Functionalism 1. Start with this basic assumption: Society is a set of interdependent parts. 2. Choose a social situation like providing health care for a society. 3. What are the needs of this situation? That is, what is supposed to be done here? 4. Think about this situation as part of a system. 5. Ask yourself: What are the parts that make up the system? What function does each part serve? What are the parts relationships with the other parts? 6. You might want to draw a diagram with circles for each part and arrows that show the connections between the parts. 7. Are there any "gaps" between what is supposed to happen and what the system is able to do? Is this the basis for change?

James Galbraith, professor at the University of Texas at Austin, notes that many economics institutions (especially journals and academic departments) are hierarchical and tribal by nature, and that sociology can exclude dissident views. Interviewed by Peter Leyden at King's College, April 2010.
