SOCIOLOGY RELATED TO OTHER SOCIAL SCIENCES
Sociology is the scientific study of society, culture, social relationships and
interactions. Sociology is the study of society and human behaviour. Sociology
is however related to other disciplines that affect the society. Some of them are;
biology, psychology, economics, political science, history, geography and social
anthropology among others. These disciplines depend on each other. In this
essay, I will discuss how these disciplines relate to sociology and how they
depend on each other.
Biology is the study of living things. Sociology is the study of how human beings
interact with one another in different environments. Biology and sociology share
a main field in socio –biology. Socio-biology is the study of how human beings
socialise with one another and how the biological processes and evolution have
affected their behaviour. Fields like biology, zoology among others are involved
in socio- biology. Psychology is the study of the human brain and how it
functions. (Hemmings 58).Sociology is the study of the general human
behaviour and how human beings interact. They share a main field in social
psychology. Psychology helps the individual to function independently in their
interaction with the community. Sociology examines the people in the
community, society and nations. It also focuses on how the groups influence the
behaviour of individuals. It mainly draws the attention to the aspects of human
behaviour.
