Sociology

A good sociology student will need more than a passionate concern for issues of injustice and inequality.   You will need to be equally passionate about understanding how society works: its structure, the mechanisms of its processes of change, the unnoticed, taken-for-granted but binding rules which govern the everyday behaviour of people in everyday situations - in the office, factory, supermarket, family home or classroom. Why do people act the way they do?
