Sociological Action Theory

Sociological Action Theory focuses on understanding how individuals' behaviors are influenced by their social contexts and the meanings they attach to their actions. It emphasizes that people act intentionally based on their interpretations of the world, social norms, and personal motivations. Instead of viewing society as just a structure that influences individuals, this theory highlights the active role people play in shaping social life through their choices and interactions. It helps explain how everyday actions contribute to larger social patterns and changes, bridging individual experiences with broader societal dynamics.
