FAQs on Syllabus: Sociology for Class 12 - Sociology Class 12 - Humanities/Arts
| 1. What is sociology and why is it important in humanities/arts education? |  |
Sociology is the scientific study of society, social relationships, and human behavior. It helps us understand the structures, institutions, and processes that shape our social world.

Sociology promotes critical thinking skills by encouraging students to question and analyze social phenomena from multiple perspectives. It challenges students to examine societal norms, values, and beliefs, fostering the ability to think critically about the social world.

Sociology also provides tools to critically analyze social policies and advocate for social justice.
| 4. How does sociology contribute to the study of culture and society? | |
Sociology contributes to the study of culture and society by providing frameworks to analyze and interpret social phenomena. It helps us understand how culture shapes our beliefs, values, and behaviors, and how society influences our interactions and social structures.
