Title: Towards the Improvement of Sociological Studies Processes Through Social Networking and ICT(s)
Abstract: The field of sociology became a science with the introduction of methodological and mathematical tools to study and analyze the sociological phenomena. On the other side, the invasion of ICT in all areas force to a review of the methodological processes of sociology studies for an efficient use of technologies and to improve the quality level of the sampling, the conduct of investigations and more rapid delivery of results. Indeed, a social phenomenon is characterized by an unpredictable cycle and the results are in a risk of subjectivity. This paper is intended as a fairly exhaustive study of currents that have influenced the process of sociological studies analyzing different aspects. We then move to a proposed hybrid life cycle and functional architecture of what would be a cooperative sociology system combining various technologies such as social networks and geographical information systems. We call that “geographic sociology system”.
