Understanding Sociology

Sociology, at its core, is the study of society, institutions, and human interactions. Understanding Sociology for CSS & PMS by Iqra Riaz-Ud-Din, viewed through the lens of sociological imagination, enables aspirants to connect personal experiences with larger social structures. C. Wright Mills’ concept of sociological imagination—the ability to see the relationship between individual lives and broader societal forces—resonates throughout this book. By linking historical contexts, economic systems, and cultural norms to personal realities, this book helps CSS and PMS candidates critically analyze social issues, policies, and transformations in Pakistan and beyond.
