Faculty of Social Sciences
Reading theory and producing theory are crucial dimensions of sociological practice. This course introduces students to theorizing as a practical activity, as distinct from knowing existing sociological theories. The course demystifies theorizing by presenting the habits, strategies, techniques, and writing practices required to theorize or, equivalently, to creatively and imaginatively develop plausible conceptual representations to explain social phenomena.
