How is sociology going today? Are they trying to integrate their models to the amazing progress in social psychology, neuroscience, anthropology, among others?

[@KIKIHIDAYAT-w5u]

thank you so much for video

[@nelly81493]

[@shrutijhanwar2702]

[@patricky2995]

Dan Davis Can you explain about the EYE as a symbol to describe about the 3 sociological paradigm?

[@angelfish7837]

To people who are unhappy with society, it's power struggle or made of shared meaning, but to those who aren't unhappy, society is an organism. Dunno, that's just my theory, who knows what's right. Also, that person you drew kinda looks the dude from Covetous.

[@4boricuas]

do you happen to have any videos on integrative theorization?

[@Supplychainpapi]

Thanks for the video

[@bigrobogbr4230]

That sounds more like a Social Stratification class but cool video!

[@kartiksood2704]

You've explained it very well man except for the fact that you were pretty fast. In my opinion in order to be a great speaker and also to draw more listeners you must go a bit slow from next time around.

[@wallussibanda5855]

[@susanbachan-ramrattan799]

Great

[@theweirdesttube9038]

It's great but lacking of an explanation of UTILITARIANISM

[@Jeronimoooo]

TheWeirdestTube I'd argue that the theories of this video are theories of how reality should be studied, whereas utalitarianism is a theory of how people are assumed to behave. Of course, you can assume people act in a utalitarian (or traditionalist or any other) way and then focus on the effects of their behavior from the perspective of one of these lenses.

[@Buddlebot]

+TheWeirdestTube Utilitarianism is the belief that we should focus our actions so they may give us the greatest benefactors.

If I had a phone for every gender there was I would have 2.

[@doullabill3941]

I new it

[@VSHawkins]

Lmao @ "definitely green" haha

[@stephenmagolo6512]

ok

[@jemamaopeenstokje]

Aren't there 4 sociological lenses? Marxisme/Neo Marxism or social conflict theories?

[@DanielDavis7]

jemamaopeenstokje There are many sociological theories. These three represent the broad traditional foundations that most newer theories draw from. Marxism and Neo-Marxism are part of the Conflict tradition, along with most critical studies (e.g. critical race studies, critical gender studies). Symbolic interactionism is related to post-modernism, semiotics, constructivism, etc. And functionalism has somewhat fallen out of favor, but I see a renewed energy in this line of thinking coming from those who really like network analysis and big data approaches to studying society. In my humble opinion, sociologists do best by knowing when to layer these lenses, rather than choosing one as "right" and the others "wrong." Each helps you think of different questions in a situation, like below, pretend you are studying changes in the tax laws:
Marxist/Conflict: What injustice can we expose? Example: How do new tax laws favor the rich and add to inequality?
Symbolic: How does this group make sense or meaning of that experience? Example: Why do poor Republicans often vote for things that are not in their best economic interest, because of their party identification?
Functionalism: How does one part of the system interact with other parts? How does a policy change in taxation impact education spending, or social security, or job creation?
