社會學，教會我的是要用更開放、廣闊的心胸擁抱這個世界。就算這個知識世界的聲音繁雜，只要我們靜下心來，好好閱讀，無處不是收穫、不處不是社會。我會認為：人，從來都不會是經濟學語境下的「理性人」，人是一種非理性的生物。我希望透過這堂，除了了解人跟人的互動與積累之外，也要更多的了解自己，尤其非理性的這塊。
這學期我們將會閱讀三本著作。分別由兩位重要的學者，David Halpern（1966-）以及於Albert Otto Hirschman（1915-2012）所著。讀本包括Social Capital（中文譯本《社會資本》）、Exit, Voice, and Loyalty（中文譯本《叛離、抗議與忠誠》），以及Shifting involvements（中文譯本《轉變參與》）。我認為這是社會系過去較少會選讀的文本，甚至可以說是被忽略的一部分。透過這次的機會，我們不只能重溫經典，更能在這個學期中，理解更多那些我們往往習以為常，卻往往有意、無意被濫用的概念。理解我們的生活中，會有什麼樣的情境，也因為這樣的情境，在心靈層次不斷的碰撞思考後，做出的抉擇。
Sociology has taught me to embrace the world with a more open and broad mind. Even if the voices in this knowledge world are complicated, as long as we calm down and read well, we will gain something and gain society everywhere. I would think: Human beings are never "rational people" in the context of economics. Human beings are irrational creatures. I hope that through this class, in addition to understanding the interaction and accumulation between people, I can also learn more about myself, especially the irrational part.
This semester we will read three books. Written by two important scholars, David Halpern (1966-) and Albert Otto Hirschman (1915-2012). Readings include Social Capital (Chinese translation of "Social Capital"), Exit, Voice, and Loyalty (Chinese translation of "Defection, Protest and Loyalty"), and Shifting involvements (Chinese translation of "Transformation Participation"). I think this is a text that sociology departments rarely read in the past, and it can even be said to be a neglected part. Through this opportunity, we can not only review the classics, but also understand more concepts that we often take for granted but are often abused intentionally or unintentionally during this semester. Understand what kind of situations there will be in our lives, and because of such situations, we make decisions after constant collision and thinking at the spiritual level.
