On Saturday April 24th, the Islamic Cultural Centre of Ireland in cooperation with the European Institute of Human Sciences (IESH) delivered a full day Seminar entitled "Sociology and the Social Concerns." It was presented by Dr. Mohamed AlGhamagui who is a professor at the European Institute of Human Sciences in Paris.
The seminar was conducted in Arabic as it was part a module studied by students taking their Islamic Studies degree with IESH. It was also open for community members to attend who were interested in learning more about this subject. Dr. AlGhamagui discussed the definition of sociology and went into issues relating to it and the effects that these issues have within society e.g. societal issues relating to ethical and social justice, and societal problems.
The seminar offered a strong expertise in social theoretical methods. The students engaged in a constructive group discussion which lead to a very healthy academic discourse.
