About the Course

This Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) will offer the participants an introduction into the most important classical sociological readings between the 18th and 20th century. Highly influential social science scholars, such as Karl Marx, Max Weber and Emile Durkheim, will be discussed during 8 sessions. Combined with small tests, based on the video’s and recommended readings, the participants will be encouraged to dive deeply into the complex texts and get familiar with classical sociological concepts that are still very relevant today....

This is a quality course. The way it's put together and presented is excellent. The content is well thought out too. And the presenter is engaging and so is interesting to listen to.

Good teacher, good humour. However, as it's only an introduction, it doesn't go in-depth and that might be missing. The English subtitles are horrendous.
