Question #2
Reading:
Why do people act differently in each of their social groups? How have social groups, formal
organizations, and society as a whole changed with time? These are questions that Max Weber,
one of the founding fathers of sociology, would ask. He thought of sociology as a science of
social action. Weber believed that understanding why people do the things they do is the basic
building block of sociology, a concept he termed Verstehen. He believed that sociologists should
not just study a group of people but also try to gain an empathetic understanding for the
individuals in that group.I'm sure you've heard the phrase 'put yourself in his shoes' or 'walk a
mile in each other's shoes.' This common sentiment illustrates what Verstehen is all about:
gaining an understanding of social action from the insider's point of view in order to better
understand the interactions within a group and the group's purpose. This, in turn, helps to explain
how groups of people make sense of the world around them, how they fit into society as a whole,
and how they've helped society evolve over time. When studying the sociological perspective, it
is important that students not just study the objective aspects of society (i.e. income levels, birth
rates, suicide rates,etc), but also study the subjective aspects of society. It is the difference
between a blink and a wink! To fully comprehend behavior, you must understand the subjective
meanings people attach to their actions - how they themselves view and explain their behavior.
Don't just study the objective aspects of their behavior - what they are doing.
