Sociology emerged as part of the intellectual response to the French and Industrial Revolutions and the global expansion of capitalism via colonialism and imperialism. In various ways, the classic sociological thinkers sought to make sense of these changes and the kind of society that resulted from them. We shall begin by examining the social and intellectual context in which sociology developed and then turn to a close reading of important social thinkers from the classical period, including: Karl Marx, W.E.B. DuBois, Jane Addams, Max Weber, and Ida B. Wells-Barnett.
How do sociologists define, model, and visualize social phenomena using quantitative tools and statistical software? This seminar will provide a technical, theoretical and practical overview. During the semester, students will learn how to use R and Python to clean, analyze and visualize data that are suitable for sociological analysis.
