 1、Summary

Economic sociology is the study of economic phenomena and social causality, divided into classical and contemporary periods, the latter is also called "new economic sociology". The classical period focused on modernity, urbanization, and social stratification, such as Weber's The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism; Contemporary economic sociology studies the social consequences and social significance of economic exchange, such as Granovetter's "Embedsibility problem" and social network analysis. Marxist sociology is concerned with the social impact of capitalism, while social economics deals with analytical, political, and moral issues at the intersection of economy and society.

2、Interesting place

Economic sociology involves the intersection of economics and sociology and explores the complex connections between economic phenomena and social causality. This interdisciplinary nature enables economic sociology to explain and understand economic phenomena from different perspectives. Economic sociology not only stays at the theoretical level, but also focuses on the explanation and analysis of actual social and economic phenomena. Through the study of economic behavior, social interaction and institutional structure at all levels of society, we can reveal the mutual influence between economic activities and social environment. Economic sociology focuses on the impact of economic exchange activities on society, including the social meaning of economic behavior, the social consequences of exchange relations, and how these activities promote or hinder social interaction. This focus allows economic sociology to explore the role of economic activity in shaping social structures and relationships.

3、problem

How are contemporary scientific and technological developments changing the patterns of economic activity and the structure of society? What is the impact of the digital economy on social interaction and economic exchange?

  summarize The scientific method is not a single recipe. It requires intelligence, creativity and imagination. In this sense it is not a blind standard or procedure, but more a way of thinking that encourages us to remain open and critical, constantly challenging and validating existing theories. The scientific method is not a single recipe. It requires intelligence, creativity and imagination. In this sense it is not a blind standard or procedure, but more a way of thinking that encourages us to remain open and critical, constantly challenging and validating existing theories. About the points I learned 1. The scientific method is based on careful observation and rigorous skepticism. This means that scientists should not readily accept any ideas or assumptions, but should always question and think critically about observational data. 2.Scientific inquiry is not merely the pursuit of truth, but the process of shedding inhibited skepticism and establishing reliable beliefs.

 Summary: Social stratification is a multidimensional concept encompassing the impact of factors such as wealth, income, race, education, and occupation on individuals' social status. In modern Western societies, social stratification is typically divided into upper class, middle class, and lower class, with each class further subdivided into smaller categories. Social stratification is not only about quantitative inequalities but also involves beliefs and attitudes toward social status. Within complex social structures, there exist various stratification phenomena, with the most privileged individuals and families enjoying disproportionate access to income, power, and other social resources. Social mobility refers to the movement of individuals, social groups, or populations between or within layers of the stratification system. Open stratification systems allow for mobility between individuals, whereas closed systems have minimal mobility, with social status often remaining uncha
