SOC 203 (Ash) Endless Education/uophelp.com SOC 203 Week 1 DQ 1 The Sociological Imagination (Ash) For more course tutorials visit www.uophelp.com SOC 203 Week 1 DQ 1 The Sociological Imagination The Sociological Imagination. In order to do understand and develop a sociological imagination, we must be able to see  a social problem from many perspectives. This is the goal of our first discussion. For example, experts are warning us about the dangers of obesity, a problem for both individuals and society. While some may suggest obesity is simply the result of individual choices, how did so many people suddenly begin to make such bad choices? Rather than the result of individual choices, perhaps obesity is the result of dietary options available to our society. This might explain variations in obesity rates from one geographic region to another. Wealth distribution, health care, and even the availability of food may also explain differing rates of obesity. In short, to those who have developed the sociological imagination, a variety of factors are clearly behind this epidemic of obesity.
