About the Course

This Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) will offer the participants an introduction into the most important classical sociological readings between the 18th and 20th century. Highly influential social science scholars, such as Karl Marx, Max Weber and Emile Durkheim, will be discussed during 8 sessions. Combined with small tests, based on the video’s and recommended readings, the participants will be encouraged to dive deeply into the complex texts and get familiar with classical sociological concepts that are still very relevant today....

The course was great. The professor was very excited about the thing he was teaching and that makes me more interested in the lecture. got a great insight about the classical sociology.

i began this class to review more of de Tocqueville and still have not had time to do so; however, i still prefer TocQ to all of these other thinkers. Wonderful experience... thank so much!!! <3

It seemed to me that it is a good introduction for someone totally new to the topic.

Worst Certificate ever. It seems Amsterdam University is ashamed of it since it's the logo is so small. It should not be the most important thing here. The professor is incredibly good as much as the didactics, however, don't charge money for a certificate not really in the same level of other courses here. Otherwise, it is the second time that the name of the course comes in a stranger language, although I specifically told my choice. Coursera now seems not been able to curb its cookies enthusiasm.

The final test is too long, it doesn't make any sense to answer 88 questions in 30 Minutes.
