  • Module 7 Key Thinkers Lecture 36 Auguste Comte and Herbert Spencer
    NPTEL – Humanities and Social Sciences – Introduction to Sociology Module 7 Key Thinkers Lecture 36 Auguste Comte and Herbert Spencer The thoughts of Auguste Comte (1798-1857), who coined the term sociology, while dated and riddled with weaknesses, continue in many ways to be important to contemporary sociology. First and foremost, Comte's positivism — the search for invariant laws governing the social and natural worlds — has influenced profoundly the ways in which sociologists have conducted sociological inquiry. Comte argued that sociologists (and other scholars), through theory, speculation, and empirical research, could create a realist science that would accurately "copy" or represent the way things actually are in the world. Furthermore, Comte argued that sociology could become a "social physics" — i.e., a social science on a par with the most positivistic of sciences, physics. Comte believed that sociology would eventually occupy the very pinnacle of a hierarchy of sciences. Comte also identified four methods of sociology. To this day, in their inquiries sociologists continue to use the methods of observation, experimentation, comparison, and historical research. While Comte did write about methods of research, he most often engaged in speculation or theorizing in order to attempt to discover invariant laws of the social world. Comte's famed "law of the three stages" is an example of his search for invariant laws governing the social world. Comte argued that the human mind, individual human beings, all knowledge, and world history develop through three successive stages. The theological stage is dominated by a search for the essential nature of things, and people come to believe that all phenomena are created and influenced by gods and supernatural forces.

  • The Development of Sociology in the United States
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIOLOGY IN THE UNITED STATES ——— JOHN LEWIS GILLIN University of Wisconsin ——— ABSTRACT The origin of sociology in the United States. — Why sociology arose in the United States following the Civil War. Character of early sociology in the United States. Characterization of the sociology of the pioneers Ward, Sumner, Small, Giddings, Ross, Cooley, Thomas. Tendencies in early American sociology. Development of sociology in the United States since the pioneers. Relation of sociology to social work. Sociology as a university subject. Hesitancy to use the term “sociology” in university curricula. The progress of sociology. ——— Sociology is usually supposed to have begun with Comte. As a matter of fact, however, there were a number of presociological movements, in which certain men manifested the beginning of the sociological attitude. To a sociologist it looks as if those responsible for the abolition of slavery in the British colonies had sociological insight. Chalmers, in his objective study of dependency in his parish in Edinburgh, and in his policy based on that study, showed a sociological attitude. Pinel, who as the result of his study of the results of the traditional methods of treating the insane, struck off the restraints and adopted humane methods, attacked the problem as a modern sociologist. Beccaria, in so far as he faced frankly the effects of age-old methods of treating the criminal and suggested other methods based upon a study of results, was a sociologist. The striking thing about all of these examples is that the men mentioned adopted a new attitude in the study of social problems.

  • Chapter 17: Social Change and Collective Behavior
    Chapter Social Change and 1177 Collective Behavior Sections 1. Social Change 2. Theoretical Perspectives on Social Change 3. Collective Behavior 4. Social Movements Learning Objectives After reading this chapter, you will be able to • illustrate the three social processes that contribute to social change. • discuss how technology, population, natural environ- ment, revolution, and war cause cultures to change. • describe social change as viewed by the functionalist and confl ict perspectives. • discuss rumors, fads, and fashions. • compare and contrast theories of crowd behavior. • compare and contrast theories of social movements. 566 Applying Sociology Social change occurs in all societies and in many ways. Today, many Americans may be especially aware of the changes technology brings. News stories tell of workers losing their jobs in the steel industry or of others who must learn computer skills to survive. The photo at left shows a dramatic example of social change in action: the March on Washington of August 28, 1963. That day, more than 250,000 people gathered to demand that the government pass a major civil rights bill and take other actions to end racial discrimination. Since that day, Americans have seen other groups organize to bring about social change— women, Latinos, gay men and women, and other groups, as well. We often assume that the societies of the past stood still. Sociology teaches us, however, that change comes to all societies. Whether by borrowing from other cultures or discovering new ways of doing things, societies change —though industrialized societies tend to change at a faster pace. In this chap- ter you will read about the many ways change is introduced in a culture and how its effects ripple through a society.

TIPPS Universityof California, Berkeley Use of the term 'modernization' in its present connotations is of relatively recent origin, becoming an accepted part of the vocabulary of American, if not international, social science only in the decade of the 1960s. Despite its relatively rapid rise to currency, the popularity of the term does not appear to be matched by any widespread consensus concerning its precise meaning. The proliferation of alternative definitions has been such, in fact, that the ratio of those using the term to alternative definitions would appear to approach unity.

  • 67 Sociology in a Rapidly Changing Society K. A. BUSIA, GHANA Visiting Professor of Sociology, Institute of Social Studies
    Sociology in a Rapidly Changing Society K. A. BUSIA, GHANA Visiting Professor of Sociology, Institute of Social Studies, The Hague THE emphasis on social change is a recognition of the predominant social fact of our time. Social changes are taking place in all countries in the world. In Africa and Asia, as in America and Europe, science and technology, and the contacts of peoples and cultures present challenges, opportunities and urges to achieve higher standards of living, larger freedom and higher human dignity, social welfare and social justice. In some countries, the efforts to achieve all these goals simultaneously have resulted in social changes that have the dimensions of a revolution which profoundly affects every aspect of national life : its culture, politics, economics,. religion, morality and social relations, as well as most realms of individual personality. This situation dictates the problems of sociology, as of the other social scienceg; for sociology is inevitably involved in the social situation, and its problems are dictated by the social setting. The concern of sociology with social change is not new. From the time of Comte to the present day, sociologists have studied and reflected upon the phenomenon of social change. They have tried to answer the questions that men have asked about society. Why does it change, and where does the change tend ? P Sociologists have provided many theories in an endeavour to the cause or the direction of social explain change. ' Comte thought he had discovered in social change a relation between intellectual and social development which he stated in his well-known theory that history showed that human thought passed through three stages : the theological, the metaphysical and the positive.
