description: The essays gathered in this debut (I, 1, Spring 2002) issue of Human Journal of the Sociology of Self-Knowledge were written by undergraduate students enrolled in various sociology courses offered at SUNY-Binghamton and SUNY-Oneonta. the issue also includes the editor's paper on K. Mannheim, where the idea of a sociology of self-knowledge was born. What these courses shared was their common use of the sociology of self-knowledge as a strategy for learning about their respective subject matters. Each course required students to engage throughout the semester in an ongoing self-exploratory sociological research focusing on a specific unresolved issue, problem, or question still facing their everyday lives. They were required to link their self-explorations to the study of society at large through various course and outside readings and films studied in class throughout the semester. Topics "The Capitalist Cuckoo's Nest," "I only Thought I Knew It Society and the Individual," "Why Is P Afraid to Love a Woman?," "Teacher Recruitment and Personal Conflicts, Social Dilemmas," ""Alien Nation,"" "Good Mother/Daughter A Process of Self-Healing," "For the Love of Our Many Lives," "Banana or Bridge? How Capitalism Impacts My Racial Identity," "My Asian-American Experience," "Welfare Beyond Caring for Children and Their Parents," "The Disabled Welfare The Welfare System and the Disabled," "Inadequate Programs Assisting Mothers in Poverty," " The Unheard Society," and "Ideology and Utopia in Towards the Sociology of Self-Knowledge."
