modern world characterized by several types of companies that have differences in many aspects as a clear (culture, language of communication, geographical location), and hidden (the degree of social integration, the level of stability and many others).Currently, there are stable and common types of society, which are divided into the traditional, industrial, post-industrial.
very notion of society implies a social community, which has historically been in the process of human life, meeting the vital needs of the people.The Company and its symptoms are significantly different from other communities.Firstly, it has a total area which is the basis of social space.It is characterized, in addition to accommodation, the interaction, the formation and development of the relationships of all its members.It also has a second distinguishing feature, characterized by a common system of norms and values, cultural system, which is the basis of human relations.Company socializes each generation, subjecting it to current standards.The third difference is the constant support and recovery of high-intensity internal linkages, sustainable social formations.The fourth sign is characterized by autonomy, self-regulation, self-development, to provide institutions and organizations on the basis of principles, norms, traditions, values emerging in society.It is able to create without interference for those forms of organization, as well as the living conditions needed to satisfy their needs, self-realization and self-affirmation.
types of society have significant differences from each other.Traditionally dominated by subsistence agriculture, lack of structure, a class hierarchy.This society with its inherent agrarian way of life.It is characterized by low rates of production development, to satisfy only the minimum needs of the people.For a traditional society the highest value is the preservation of traditions, not its very development.It is characterized by the traditional economy, the predominance of the agrarian structure, structural stability, low mobility, and high mortality.For a person who belongs to a traditional society, perception of the world and instigated the life of the order is sacred, not to be changed.Individualism is discouraged, as this may lead to a violation of the established order.In such a society, the collective interests prevail over private, and every manifestation of individual freedom is suppressed.This is characteristic of traditional society.
By analyzing other types of society, it is worth noting their essential differences from the foregoing.These are based on the industrial process management with flexible, dynamic and modifying structures called industrial.It is characterized by a developed division of labor, mass production of goods, automation of production.
Describing the types of society should be more focus on the post-industrial, information is sometimes called.Post-industrial society developed on the basis of the information.Inherent in traditional industrial society, and the extraction and processing of natural products are replaced by acquired and processed information, as well as primary development services.As a result, it changes the structure of employment, and the ratio of occupational groups.According to forecasts in the near future in the advanced countries in the field of information will be occupied half of the workforce, a quarter of it will be in the sphere of material production, while the other quarter will be connected to the production of services, most of the information.
in contemporary sociology there are other social classification.It all depends on the criterion that underlies each of them.
