Sociology

This memo gives you two options. Both options require a brief discussion of each of sociology’s major theories

– structural functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interaction – followed by an application of each theory. Note: This memo is a thought experiment. You do not have to do extensive research as to what conflict theorists have said about sports (e.g., Dave Zirin). You just simply have to point out what a conflict theorist might be interested in (e.g., how public funds are often used to build state-of-the-art stadiums at the expense of other needed services).

Option 1: Explain how each sociological theory might make sense of our fascination with professional sports.

Option 2: Take a topic of your choosing (e.g., education, popular culture, etc.) and examine how each sociological theory might handle that topic.

Memos should be between 1.5 and 2 pages (double spaced, 12 font, Times New Roman).
