Write a sociological autobiography of your life, with special emphasis on your socialization process. Use C. Wright Mills sociological imagination to view yourself as an outsider might. According to sociologist C. Wright Mills, people usually see the world through the limited experience of family, relatives, friends, and fellow workers. This viewpoint places blinders on our view of the wider society. The sociological imagination allows us to escape from this cramped personal vision and to see the link between personal and social events. The sociological imagination helps us see the relationship between individual experiences and the larger society. It allows us to understand how seemingly personal troubles may be related to the larger social context of public issues. Developing our own sociological imagination requires that we consider perspectives of people from diverse backgrounds.
