** A requirement of the exam is to include the question with the complete answer. **

Three Short essay/answer questions:

51. How would you define sociology to someone who knows nothing about it? 

52. If you had a million-dollar research grant to study anything about society, what would you study?  Why would you choose this topic?

53. Cultural norms play a significant role in socialization.  Take a moment to think about the various ways culture has shaped your own socialization. Pick a specific example of how your culture may have shaped your socialization and identify how exposure to a different culture may have shaped you differently.

Final Exam Part 2 of 2   Read the online article from the “Everyday Sociology Blog” and answer the following questions:

There are four different areas (numbered 1, 2, 3, 4) the author addresses about sociology.  Choose two areas and tell me what you think.  Agree?  Disagree?    (It’s also interesting to read the ‘comments’ section below the actual article 🙂  Expand with your answer.

Side note:  I hope you always remember:   “The difficulty in sociology is to manage to think in a completely astonished and disconcerted way about things you thought you had always understood.”– Pierre Bourdieu, sociologist, anthropologist, philosopher.
