In the last module of the course we will learn about major social issues surrounding health care, urbanization, social movements. Health sociology includes social epidemiology, illness, mental health, disability and medical care. We can see that our understanding and treatment of medicine and healthcare continues to evolve. Furthermore, studying health sociology will face the following challenges. What does health mean to you? What do you think about legalized medicine? Is there too much people prescribing medicine in the USA?
In addition, this module will learn about population, urbanization, and the environment. You will explore the possible reasons for people to move from rural to urban areas and how these changes in population and urbanization will affect the environment.
Finally, I will learn about various kinds of social movements. Social movements are usually large in size and have great social influence, but usually they start with a grassroots organization and rely heavily on word of mouth. However, the success of the grassroots movement is institutionalized and tends to develop into a more fixed, formal part of social structure.
For example, the second wave of feminism from the 1960s to the 1980s was initially a grassroots movement for gender inequality. Men and women participating in this campaign are not usually part of an official organization. Instead, they want to disseminate their careers through a conscious group and create social change. One of them is going to be a national women's organization (NOW). Beginning in 1966 with a group of about 28 women, it is still one of the major political and social voices of women's rights with over 500,000 members. Indeed, we are witnessing the second wave of feminists who are changing, such as strengthening laws to protect women from discrimination at work and abuse of women.
When you carefully study social movements, you explore the following questions: How does collective action affect social change? How is social change different at state, country, and world level? How do the various theoretical perspectives explain the social movements?
