Applying the 3 Major Sociology Theories to a
Sociological Study of COVID – 19

STEPS:
1. Summarize each of the three theories.

What are their key terms and main points?
Is this theory macro- or micro-sociological?
What is the model we’ve been using?
Who is one of the main theorists?

2. Apply these theories to COVID-19.

How would each theory examine COVID-19?
What central questions might the theory ask about the COVID-19 experience we’re having?
How would this theory expand our understanding of the sociological experience of COVID-19?
