The purpose of this exploration is to offer an initial understanding of the complexities embedded in the world that surrounds us, and to gain a new view of our own role in this complex web. The course is organized in a progression where we move from a basic introduction into sociology, to a more detailed exploration of two central sociological paradigms (functionalism and conflict), to the specific exploration of research and theories surrounding class, gender, and race. }, journal={TRAILS: Teaching Resources and Innovations Library for Sociology}, author={Hernandez, Sarah}, year={2010}, month={Apr.} }
