Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

Throughout history, social philosophers and religious authorities have

made countless observations about human behavior, but the first

systematic analysis of society is found in the philosophies of early Greek

philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle. However, early thinkers such as

Plato and Aristotle provided thoughts on what they believed society ought

to be like, rather than describing how society actually was. Social thought

began to change rapidly in the seventeenth century with scientific

revolution. Contributions from such scientific thinkers as Isaac Newton

inspired social thinkers to believe that similar advances could be made in

the systematic study of human behavior. Industrialization and urbanization

pushed social thinkers into examining the social times and the

consequences of the social forces.
