Value Conflict

Sociology as the study of society and humanity cannot avoid a focus on values; this is because humanity and the society cannot avoid making value judgments. For sociology to be objective, it would have to be independent of factors such as color, race, creed, occupation, religion, nationality, political predispositions and moral preferences. It is an impossible task; thus, the making of value judgments always leads to value conflicts. For sociology to be free of values, it must be able to distinguish social facts from values; being the study of human nature, it cannot achieve this. Sociologists view the world Continue reading...

Towards the late twentieth century, feminist’s movement arose as a result of the skyrocketing of Continue reading...

1. What is your immediate reaction to the scenario? How would you feel if you were the person this situation was about?

In the case of the French films La Grande Vadrouille and La Cage Aux Folles, the setting of the story within French culture and locations allows the Continue reading...
