The main aim of the course is to deal with the explicit and implicit discriminatory behaviors that can occur in daily life on a sociological basis. At the same time, being able to explain the different types of discrimination that is visible in everyday life is the main focus of the course.

There are strong indications that the nature of discrimination has changed in the modern world. Historically, although there has been a decline in old-fashioned or direct, overt discrimination, the views and concerns that traditional discriminatory attitudes continue increasingly by changing their form are also increasing. Whether the phenomenon of discrimination is defined as a legal problem or an inequality problem, it is an individual and social problem that ultimately emerges in the relations between people. In this course, the issue of discrimination is discussed through the basic concepts of sociology and also with a social-psychological approach.
