Cultural Sociology
The sociology of culture, and the related cultural sociology, concerns the systematic analysis of culture, usually understood as the ensemble of symbolic codes used by a member of a society, as it is manifested in the society. For Georg Simmel, culture referred to "the cultivation of individuals through the agency of external forms which have been objectified in the course of history". Culture in the sociological field is analyzed as the ways of thinking and describing, acting, and the material objects that together shape a group of people's way of life.

Alexander introduced the term ''cultural sociology'', an approach that sees all, or most, social p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
