In this
section of Core 3, we will learn about how social scientists
investigate and interpret the social world. Our focus will be on the
concept of power and how it affects the processes and institutions in
contemporary American society. To this end, we will look at the major
social dimensions that give structure to our thoughts, experiences and
actions as a result of our participation in society, including class,
race, and gender.
