Answer to Question 1

Tnnies, Durkheim, and Redfield identified many of the same characteristics in preindustrial and industrial societies, but called them different things. Gemeinschaft, mechanical solidarity, and folk society all describe a society that has strong personal ties, consensus about many things, and is family oriented.
