Sociology is the systematic study of society, social institutions, and social relationships. It examines how individuals interact with one another and how these interactions are shaped by cultural, economic, political, and social structures. Sociologists investigate a wide range of topics, including social behavior, group dynamics, social change, and the influence of social norms and values on human actions.
