Using Sociological Theory mind maps

These maps let you follow branches through a theory or a thinker’s ideas. Marxism basics offers a starting point for studying Marxism, while Key Concepts of Functionalism focuses on functionalism. For a comparison, look at the map on Marxism and functionalism.

Other maps take a different focus. Post-colonialism includes types of colonies and effects on Europe. Social Action Theory covers Weber, types of action and symbolic interactionism. Maps on Émile Durkheim and Max Weber offer routes into individual thinkers.

Study with the branches

Start with a map that matches your current topic. Read a branch, then cover it and explain the connection in your own words. Return to the map to check what you missed. Once you have followed the ideas, switch to flashcards on the unit page for key terms, or use a quiz to test your understanding. Pick a map and follow a branch that interests you.
