What is the importance of knowledge in sociology?

Question

pls. pls. need some answers!! T.T

Answer 1

Well, based on the many idiotic theories that sociologists treat as fact, I'd say, NONE.

Answer 2

Many would agree that "knowledge" by its key sense means being able to grasp anything-- be it facts or theories. When there is knowledge it can bridge anything from measurable things down to unknown phenomena in the world.

Sociology for one thing is the study of people, culture and tradition. The main idea is always the people. Knowledge plays a vital role in understanding different human concepts. As the saying goes knowldege is power...

Answer 3

It is very important. You need to know how others think and feel and react in order to be successful in our society. It helps because you can predict situations or learn how to act around certain individuals in order to achieve what you would like (for example, land your dream job or purchase your car at the best value).
