Making Sociological Sense is an engaging anthology that introduces students to the field of sociology through exposure to the work of sociologists. Through a collection of research-based articles, students learn how to articulate the sociological perspective and its contribution to the understanding of human behavior and society. They develop knowledge regarding systems of stratification, how social institutions are affected by macro- and micro-level social factors, and how sociological concepts apply to their everyday lives. The second edition of the anthology is divided into four sections. Section 1 orients readers with the sociological perspective, familiarizing them with the concept of how society can affect human behavior, identity, and life chances. In Section 2, students read articles that examine structures of constraint and opportunity, including race, class, and gender. Section 3 focuses on social institutions, presenting students with readings that discuss families, medical sociology, and religion. New to this edition, Section 4 broadens the scope of the content to include international topics and perspectives, including the world system, late-stage capitalism, and global health. Each reading is complemented by critical thinking questions, encouraging students to carefully consider and engage with the material. For the second edition, most of the readings have been updated and all chapter introductions have been revised. New readings explore qualitative research interviews, gender, the structural features of choice, race and sport, the theory of world systems, and the delivery gap in distributing needed medicine around the world. Providing an enlightening and accessible introduction to the field, Making Sociological Sense is an ideal text for foundational courses in sociology.
