The Sociological Imagination ((4 Credits))

Catalog description

This course examines the work of C.W. Mills as a cornerstone of sociological thought. The idea of a 'sociological imagination,' first proposed by Mills, situates the social actor at the intersection of biography, society, and history. How does this impact how we view the social world? Learn how to understand the connections between what we often consider to be the 'private' problems of the individual with broader social issues that affect us all.
