Lesson - 2 Nature, Scope and Importance of Sociology - Part - A 

Sociology which is known as the science and society, is one of the youngest social science. It is one of the youngest sciences because only recently it came to be established as a distinct branch of knowledge with its own distinct set of concepts, theories and its own methods of inquiry. Sociology as an independent social science has been established by the social scientists namely Auguste Comte, Herbrt Spencer, Emile Durkheim, Max Weber and Karl Marx. These Sociologists have played a leading role in making sociology a science. Therefore, these social thinkers are often called as the “founding fathers of Sociology.”
