What is society?


Open in App
Solution

Answer:

A society is a group of people participating in continuous social connection, or a broad social group occupying the same social or spatial territory, normally exposed to the same political power and cultural standards that are dominant. Society consists of people who have decided to work together through mutual advantage.

There has been a lot of discussion about what makes a society effective.

  • It is assumed that mankind would have been nasty, short and brutish without society.
  • A man without society will snatch the food of another family and kill anyone who gets in his way. It would be the natural state of man, to sustain himself alone.
