About the Course

This Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) will offer the participants an introduction into the most important classical sociological readings between the 18th and 20th century. Highly influential social science scholars, such as Karl Marx, Max Weber and Emile Durkheim, will be discussed during 8 sessions. Combined with small tests, based on the video’s and recommended readings, the participants will be encouraged to dive deeply into the complex texts and get familiar with classical sociological concepts that are still very relevant today....

老师就如同一位白发智者坐在你面前将故事娓娓道来,抑扬顿挫,幽默风趣,充满激情。旁边还配有简洁可爱的动画。期待教授下一门新慕课。
