Sociologists are interested in changing the world by systematically studying society rather than using biases or assumptions. Once we understand the larger social forces that influence our own behavior and that of others, we can create policies, organizations and even families that benefit the majority of people rather than the powerful few. Through systematically gathering information from different groups, sociology can be a powerful tool for the betterment of communities and organizations.
