It is said to be a way of life of the people It is focused on how do people react in the society..How people interact with one another or in social groups. And it is characterized by the formal and informal social relationships engaged by the individuals. That is the relationship with other people as well the relationships individuals have with social institutions. We have our own way of dealing with the people. It is because of the impact of the society we live in, We grew up in a different society that makes us a unique individual.We come up with different perspective.
Society is all around you, most of us take for granted. Sociology is about the study of society in which we live in today, and people who make up societies, who we are as people and how we fit in to the world around us. Every one thinks of themselves as a free agent but actually lots of things that influence us , the clothes we wear, the music we listen to the country in which we identify ourselves in, they are invented by ourselves and they are part of a much larger social background to our lives.For example a women may go around everyday acting out her feminity , a way that is a completely normal to her. Education helps society by socializing young children into key cultural values like for example the achievement .
