A textbook title from the Civic and Social Science Basics series focusing on sociology and media. The textbook addresses two areas of the Civic and Social Science Basics, namely the issues of sociology and media and their influence on individuals. The sociology section covers the definition of the discipline and basic sociological concepts, the structure of society, and the process of human socialization. It also introduces the issues of family and discusses the relationship between humans, culture, and nature; the process of human integration into the culture of a given society. The section focused on media is closely related to the previous one. Media and advertising accompany individuals at every step in contemporary society; therefore, it is appropriate to learn to understand them, to sort information, and to verify it from multiple sources. It will familiarize you with the issues of the communication process, media as such, media entities, and journalistic genres. This part of the textbook goes into considerable detail about mass media and new media, especially those based on internet technologies.
