1 Social Theory Honors Section Sociology 475 Professor Cameron Macdonald T-Th 2:30-3: Social Science Social Science 6112 Office Hours, Tuesdays, noon 2:00 COURSE DESCRIPTION In this course we will study major thinkers and theoretical perspectives within sociology. In particular, we will explore how these thinkers address four of the central concerns of modernity: capitalism as a form of social order; the interplay between democracy and bureaucracy; and the role of religion in the face of the rise of scientific thought and the concept of the individual in complex societies. Students can expect to: (1) become familiar with the foundational concepts, analytic frameworks, and debates that inform sociological thought and practice; (2) understand these ideas, concepts, and debates in terms of the sociohistorical contexts in which they developed; and (3) learn to identify and assess the assumptions and implications underlying these sociological theories. You will also be expected to apply these theoretical perspectives to contemporary problems. COURSE REQUIREMENTS AND EXPECTATIONS Required course participation includes doing all of the assigned readings before class, and attending and participating in all class discussions. In addition, each of you will, with a partner, generate and distribute discussion questions at least two days in advance each class. The material we will be studying is sometimes difficult, but always fascinating careful reading of the texts, diligent note-taking during lectures, and active participation in class will be essential to your success. Attendance is mandatory. You will also be expected to do close reading of the assigned texts. When we discuss the theorists presented, you will be expected to be able to refer to the page numbers and location of relevant arguments and citations. This means you should bring the book and your notes to class every week. I will give a set of study questions for you to follow with each week s readings. Grades will be based on the following breakdown: Attendance/Participation 100 points; Paper 1 50 points; Paper 2 50 points; Paper III group research project and paper 100 points.
