本課程包括三個組成部分：一、傳統上關於現代性的一些比較典型的討論──當然是以“批判的介紹”進行；二，社會學傳統關於“社會結構”的幾個基本概念的批判性討論；三，從一種比較是“第三世界”的視角重新評估這個向來由西方社會學所界定的現代性；以及四，從知識範式以及思維模式上找出一種中國的、第三世界的社會學思考的可能性。本課程至少期待同學能夠批判性地，有歷史感覺地，掌握社會學的一些關鍵概念或範疇（例如理性化、規訓、反身性、物化……），並對二十世紀以來某些全球重要議題(殖民主義、全球化，與大屠殺)產生關懷感覺，從而得以在比較大的範圍內思考與全球的未來，當然以及大家比較直接關心的台灣的未來，攸關的重要議題。

This course includes three components: 1. Some more typical discussions about modernity in traditional terms - of course, they are conducted in "critical introductions"; 2. Critical discussions on several basic concepts of "social structure" in social science; 3. Re-evaluate this modernity, which is often defined by Western society from a perspective that is more "third world"; and 4. Find out the possibility of a Chinese and third world social thinking from the perspective of intellectual format and thinking mode. At least this course hopes that students can critically and historically understand some key concepts or scopes of social science (such as rationalization, regulation, reflexivity, materialization...), and have a sense of concern for some important global issues since the 20th century (colonialism, globalization, and massacre), so as to think about the global future in a larger scope, and of course, and the future of Taiwan, which everyone is more directly concerned about.
