This video presents the question, “How does sociology help us better understand politics in this season of elections?”
The discussion questions are as follows:
1) The issues of how, when, and where the electorate should be allowed to vote, vary tremendously across the country depending on the laws of the individual states. How is this related to the November election?
2) One significant social change in American politics is the increasing amount of money donated and spent on elections. It pays to have the largest campaign war chest. Do you think the political campaign system should be reformed to limit the amount candidates can spend?
