What is Sociology?

Pam Fishman's research of studying issues of power in male-female relations are correct (micro-level approach). In a regular classroom, girls are the ones asking more questions than the boys, who already started on the assignment. 


Being a researcher, I am performing participant observation by writing down journals about  how i take part in the social world of the Kechichian family life.

Using sociological perspective, one will realize that she is living in a poor environment that only has time to eat fast food. That is why obesity rates have been growing. 

By using sociological imagination, one will know that the situation of this image means that they are a happy married couple.

Using both sociological imagination and perspective, one will understand that this man is homeless, living a poor life, and is only in need for money to buy weed.
