What will you study?

Leading scholars from both disciplines will challenge you to consider important questions in two broad domains: the methodological and the normative.

Questions relating to methodology include: Are social structures better understood as systems of laws and forces, or as webs of meanings and practices? Is social action better viewed as rational behaviour, or as self-expression? Questions concerning normative issues include: What is a just society? How should we evaluate the institutions that govern our everyday lives?
