Sociology is the study of human interaction. The main concern is to explain human behaviour by examining individuals, small groups and institutions such as political organisations, the education system and the family. Sociology addresses ‘important’ questions such as: ‘Why do girls generally perform better than boys in education? Why are some people racist, sexist or homophobic?’, attempting to answer these by considering various sociological perspectives (Marxism, functionalism, feminism) and a wide range of current research and evidence. It gives a better understanding of society and new insight into the way human life is organised. Sociology enables people to make sense of their own experiences.
