ED Tech Press Origins Of Sociological Theory (Hb 2022) by Arris Dorsey & Readale Collier
The field of sociology itselfand sociological theory by extensionis relatively new. Both date back to the 18th and 19th centuries. The drastic social changes of that period, such as industrialization, urbanization, and the rise of democratic states caused particularly Western thinkers to become aware of society. The oldest sociological theories deal with broad historical processes relating to these changes.
