The objective of this paper is to analyze non-academic, alternative visions of sociology through their relationship with homemaking courses and investigate the scope and issues in sociology. With this end in view, the paper first discusses the nature of homemaking courses. The process starts with an inquiry into home economics, which serves as an academic background to homemaking. The paper then seeks to address this inquiry by analyzing the position and problems of sociology to identify and resolve issues in the course of homemaking itself.<br>In ancient Greece, home economics occupied a legitimate position as a practical (political) science for males. Between then and the modern era, it was an area of study designed for family heads, that is, men. However, from the modern era onward, home economics reverted from being a male-oriented discipline to being a female-oriented one. With theoretical developments revolving around life politics, a central theme of Anthony Giddens. s modernity theory, sociology came to be considered a potential source of power in creating a new recognition of home economics as a field in which both women and men (humanity) initiate reforms in modern society. The scope of sociology lies in its ability to cross over into home economics, giving home economists the potential to reform this field of study. This potential grants homemaking education, backed by home economics, the capacity to foster practical life skills in children in the form of reflective selection of lifestyles and to enable them to aim for social reform.
