Sociology of Politics

Sociology of Politics is the study of how social factors influence political behavior and systems. It examines how people's identities, such as class, race, gender, and culture, shape their political beliefs and actions. This field also explores the impact of social institutions, like families, communities, and organizations, on political participation and decision-making. By understanding these dynamics, sociologists aim to reveal how power is distributed and exercised within society and how politics can affect social relationships and structures.
