Sociology
In contemporary societies, social institutions are:
highly specialized, interrelated sets of social practices
disorganized social relations in a postmodern world
virtual communities in cyberspace
no longer relevant to sociology
highly specialized, interrelated sets of social practices
Sociology is the study of whole societies and the activities that go on within them. Modern societies are organized around social institutions, which are patterns of behaviour, social roles, and practices. These institutions are specialized because they regulate activity in different contexts of social life: education, the family, religion, and so on. However, the various institutions are linked together, and so we cannot study one social institution in isolation from the others. 10
