LESSON

DIFFERENT FORMS OF SOCIETIES

What is a society? It is a group of people who shares a common lifestyle

and organization.

The term "society" came from the Latin word societas, which in turn
was derived from the noun socius ("comrade, friend, ally"; adjectival
form socialis) used to describe a bond or interaction between parties that are
friendly, or at least civil. Without an article, the term can refer to the entirety
of humanity (also: "society in general", "society at large", etc.), although those
who are unfriendly or uncivil to the remainder of society in this sense may be
deemed to be "antisocial".

Societies construct patterns of behavior by deeming certain actions or speech

as acceptable or unacceptable. These patterns of behavior within a given
 society are known as societal norms. Societies, and their norms, undergo
gradual and perpetual changes.

Societies are social groups that differ according to subsistence

strategies, the ways that humans use technology to provide needs for
themselves. Although humans have established many types of societies
throughout history, anthropologists tend to classify different societies
according to the degree to which different groups within a society have
unequal access to advantages such as resources, prestige, or power.

Virtually all societies have developed some degree of inequality among

their people through the process of social stratification, the division of
members of a society into levels with unequal wealth, prestige, or power.

To help understand how modern society developed, sociologists find it

useful to distinguish societies according to their type of economy and
technology. One of the most useful schemes distinguishes the following types
of societies:

Summary of Societal Development

Type of society Key characteristics

These are small, simple societies in which people hunt and gather food. Because
Hunting-and-
all people in these societies have few possessions, the societies are fairly
gathering
egalitarian, and the degree of inequality is very low.
Horticultural and pastoral societies are larger than hunting-and-gathering
societies. Horticultural societies grow crops with simple tools, while pastoral
Horticultural
societies raise livestock. Both types of societies are wealthier than hunting-and-
and pastoral
gathering societies, and they also have more inequality and greater conflict than
hunting-and-gathering societies.
These societies grow great numbers of crops, thanks to the use of plows, oxen,
Agricultural and other devices. Compared to horticultural and pastoral societies, they are
wealthier and have a higher degree of conflict and of inequality.
Industrial societies feature factories and machines. They are wealthier than
Industrial agricultural societies and have a greater sense of individualism and a somewhat
lower degree of inequality that still remains substantial.
These societies feature information technology and service jobs. Higher
Postindustrial
education is especially important in these societies for economic success.

The growth and development of various form of societies highlight the

growing complexity of human interactions overtime. Societies are classified
according to their development and use of technology. For most of human history,
people lived in preindustrial societies characterized by limited technology and low
production of goods. But despite this advancement and changes, the human
person still remains the heart and center of society The person is the primary
agent of change, as they drive social changes based on responses to events and
developments affecting society

After the Industrial Revolution, many societies based their economies around
mechanized labor, leading to greater profits and a trend toward greater social
mobility. Modernization has changed the power relationships among societies by
rapidly strengthening the position of some at the expense of others.
