    The sociological imagination is the ability to see how individual experiences are influenced by broader social forces and historical contexts. It connects private troubles, like losing a job, to larger societal issues. Sociology is defined as the study of society and culture. It examines how society is structured through institutions, organizations, and the shared way of life or culture of a group of people living within territorial boundaries. Foundational theorists like Durkheim, Marx, and Weber helped establish sociology as a discipline focused on understanding these relationships between individuals and society.
