Sociological imagination
6:54
Sociological Imagination - The ability to see how the seemingly personal, intimate aspects of ones life are connected to broader, social and historical conditions. The ability to connect personal troubles to the condition of ones society. The concept is visible in the work of many classical and contemporary sociologists, but the term itself is credited to C. Wright Mills.

Sociological Imagination
5:59
This video is an introduction of C. Wright Mills concept of the sociological imagination. Understanding and being able to exercise the sociological imagination helps us understand the relationship between the individual and society. Mills focuses on the distinction of personal troubles and public issues. For example, exercising is not just a personal behavior but is vastly influenced by society. The example of obesity in the United States is used to help explain this concept. Further examination of the sociological imagination can be found on page 6 in the text Sociology 2e by OpenStax College.

Mills explores why theory is important to our understanding of society. He explains the concept of the Sociological Imagination-- his idea that sociologists needed to be critical and skeptical of the bureaucratization of sociological research.

Sociological Imagination
6:29
The Sociological Imagination enables us to grasp history and biography and the relations between the two within society. That is it's task and it's promise. -C Wright Mills, _The Sociological Imagination_ , page 6
The Warner brother's Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner demonstrate for us one interpretation of a sociologist's quest to fulfill that promise.

What is Critical Thinking?
2:30
Critical Thinking encompasses six vital skills: problem solving, analysis, creating thinking, interpretation, evaluation, and reasoning.
These skills are increasingly in demand as the world transitions to an ideas economy. According to Forbes, although 70% of university graduates believe they have the critical thinking skills to succeed in the workplace, only one-third of employers agree. New approaches in education and recruitment are needed to address this gap.
Macat is working with global partners, including University of Cambridge, to develop new research and insights into the importance of critical thinking in education and the workplace.

The contemporary theorists covered include Harry Braverman, John Bellamy Foster, Robert K. Merton, Robert Nisbet, Neil Postman, Norbert Elias, George Ritzer, Gerhard Lenski, Stephen Sanderson, Stjepan Mestrovic, C. Wright Mills, Ester Boserup, and Immanuel Wallerstein.

The Sociological Imagination
9:37
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.

Functionalism | Sociology | Chegg Tutors
3:44
Functionalism (or structural functionalism) is the perspective in sociology according to which society consists of different but related parts, each of which serves a particular purpose. According to functionalism, sociologists can explain social structures and social behavior in terms of the components of a society and their functions. Auguste Comte helped develop functionalism in the 19th century, and functionalist Emile Durkheim later compared society to the human body. Just as the body consists of different, interrelated organs that enable it to survive, society consists of different components that enable it to survive and which depend on each other. For example, judicial systems help maintain order, and schools teach children. Problems in a single part of society can disrupt the whole.

An Introduction to Michel Foucault’s The History of Sexuality - A Macat Sociology Analysis
3:09
Contrary to what most people think, the emergence of capitalism and bourgeois society in the West did not lead to the suppression of talk about sexuality in public life. New approaches in government, the scientific community, and the Church acted as a catalyst for a different approach to sex, designed to give those in authority the means to categorize and then control another area of their citizens’ lives. Watch Macat’s short video for a great introduction to Michel Foucault’s History of Sexuality: Vol. 1, one of the most important sociology books ever written.

An examination of the social phenomenon of revolution. Major changes within a population group can indirectly create competition among elites, fiscal problems at state level and a widespread rise in the cost of living. This in turn creates pressures in society. Rigidity in society’s political, economic, cultural, and social institutions then allows these pressures to lead to revolutions.
