→ Inequality exists everywhere in society, Someone is black, white, poor, rich, thin, fat, literate, or illiterate. There are many other bases which we can find in our society.

→ Divison of society in different layers on different bases is known as social stratification.

→ We cannot find any society where stratification doesn’t exist.

→ In modern societies, a new form of stratification has come forward and this is the class system.

→ Class is a group of people who are similar to each other on a particular basis.

→ For example, upper class, middle class, lower class, labour class, industrialist class, doctor class, etc.

→ Feudalism was one of the important aspects of medieval European society.

→ One individual was given a very large piece of land and was made feudal lord.

→ This land was transmitted to his children with which they remained rich.

→ During the 19th and 20th centuries, slavery prevailed in many parts of the world.

→ One person was purchased and sold as a slave and the owner kept unlimited rights over him.

→ G.S. Ghurye was one of the Indian sociologists who gave his views on the caste system.

→ Mainly three types of classes prevail in our society: Upper class, middle class, and lower class. The difference between these classes is mainly on the basis of wealth.

→ A caste is a closed group which cannot be changed in any case but a class is an open group that can be changed with an individual’s ability and hard work.

→ According to Karl Marx, in different ages, there prevailed two classes.

→ The first one is the capitalist class and the second one is labour class.

→ The conflict remained there, between them, all the time and this is known as class conflict.

→ New trends are also coming into the class system. During the last few decades, a new class has emerged and this is the middle class.

→ The upper class always exploited the lower class with the help of the middle class.

PSEB 11th Class Sociology Notes Chapter 6 Socialization

→ When a child takes birth, he is unaware of his surroundings. Gradually, he becomes older and learns the ways to live in society. This process of learning ways of living in society is known as socialisation.

→ The process of socialization starts with the birth and goes on for the whole of one’s life.

→ The life of an individual comes to an end but this is a never-ending process.

→ If there will be no process of socialization, humans will start behaving like animals and there will be nothing called society.

→ The process of socialisation is a never-ending process. Gradually a child grows older, becomes independent and at this stage, this process becomes quite necessary.

→ At this stage, a need is required to control his behaviour. Here the advantage of socialisation is visible to us.

→ There are five stages of the socialization-infant stage, childhood stage, Adolescent stage, Adulthood stage, and old age.

→ The infant stage starts with birth and goes till one year. The childhood stage goes till 13-14 years, the adolescent stage till 17-18 years, the adulthood stage from 18-50 years, and old age start after this.

PSEB 11th Class Sociology Notes Chapter 4 Social Groups

→ Man is a social animal. He cannot live alone. To fulfill his needs, he needs to depend upon others. So, most of his activities are centered around groups.

→ A social group is an aggregate of two or more persons who interact with each other.

→ But to become a group, this interaction must continue for a longer period of time. This interaction motivates him to relate with the group.

→ A social group has many features such as it is a collection of individuals, interactions that take place among members of a group, members are conscious about their membership, they have we-feeling among them, each group has certain rules, etc.

→ There exist many social groups in society, and many Sociologists have classified them on many bases. But the classification given by C.H. Cooley is accepted by most Sociologists.

→ According to Cooley, on the basis of physical closeness and distance, there are two types of groups-Primary groups and Secondary groups.

→ Primary groups are the groups in which members have physical proximity with each other.

→ We meet these members on a daily basis, share everything with them, and love to live with them. For example, family, playgroup, neighbourhood, etc.

→ Secondary groups are exactly opposite to primary groups. In such groups, we can take membership with our will and can leave them at any time.

→ There are no close relations among their members; for example, political parties, trade unions, etc.

→ Secondary groups have many features such as physical proximity, temporary in nature, formal relations, optional membership, etc.

→ Primary groups are of great importance as we cannot live without them. They help in the process of socialization and keep control of individual behaviour.

→ Sumner also classified groups and this are-In-group and the Out-group.

→ In-groups are the groups about which an individual is completely conscious. Out-groups are the groups with which an individual does not have we-feeling.

→ Robert Merton gave a new type of group called Reference Group. Sometimes an individual tries to control and direct his behaviour according to a specific group. That group for the individual is a reference group.

→ According to Aristotle, man is a social animal. He cannot live alone.

→ An individual can neither live out of society nor can he think about it. He needs to depend upon 6thers to fulfill his needs.

→ To fulfill his needs, an individual needs to make relations with others, and the web of social relations is known as society.

→ Different sociologists have divided societies on different bases such as Comte (intellectual development), Morgan (social development), Spencer (the degree of structural complexity), Tonnies (types of social ties), Durkheim (types of solidarity), etc.

→ Society has many features such as it is abstract, it is based on similarities and differences, co-operation and conflict both exist in it and a system of stratification is always there in it.

→ Man has a very close relation with society because he cannot live alone. To live, he needs the help of others.

→ Durkheim was of the view that society is associated with every aspect of our life.

→ Humans are also important for society because, in their absence, there can be no existence of society.

→ When a few individuals live in a group, in a particular geographical area, in an organised manner and spend the whole of their life without any particular motive, it is known as community. We-feeling always exists in the community.

→ There are certain elements of the community such as a group of people, definite geographical area, community feeling, common culture, etc.

PSEB 11th Class Sociology Notes Chapter 2 Relationship of Sociology with Other Social Sciences

→ Every individual is having many aspects in his life; such as economic, religious, political, social, etc.

→ That’s why to study different aspects of society, Sociology needs to take help from other social sciences.

→ It is true that Sociology borrows subject matter from different social sciences but it also gives them its own subject matter to use.

→ In this way, other social sciences also depend upon Sociology to study their own subject matter.

→ Sociology and Political Science are closely related to each other. Sociology is the science of society and Political Science is a science of an aspect of society, which includes state and government.

→ Both the sciences depend upon each other and consequently have close relationships with each other. But there exist many differences among them.

→ History studies past events and Sociology studies present phenomena. Both the sciences study human society but from different aspects.

→ Sociology uses the information collected by History and Sociological material is used by Historians. That’s why they depend upon each other but they have many differences among them.

→ Sociology and Economics are also closely related to each other because economic relations are an important part of social relations.

→ Our social relations are definitely affected by economic relations. In this way they are interrelated. Both the sciences borrow their subject matter from each other.

→ Sociology is closely related to Psychology as well. Psychology studies human behaviour and humans are a part of society.

→ It is necessary to study humans before studying society. So, both these help each other and depend upon each other.

→ Sociology is also closely related to Anthropology. Anthropology studies ancient society and Sociology studies present society.

→ L. Kroeber calls both of these twin sisters. Sociology borrows a lot from Anthropological research.

→ In the same way, Anthropology also takes help from Sociology to understand human society.

→ Cultural Anthropology: Branch of Anthropology which studies cultural differences among humans.

→ Archaeology: It studies human activities with the help of excavated things from the earth.

→ Political Sociology: The branch of Sociology studies that how many social forces collectively influence political policies.

→ Physical Anthropology: It mainly deals with human evolution, their variability, and adaptations to environmental stresses. It is also known as Biological Anthropology.

This PSEB 11th Class Sociology Notes Chapter 1 Emergence of Sociology will help you in revision during exams.

PSEB 11th Class Sociology Notes Chapter 1 Emergence of Sociology

→ The emergence of Sociology is a new phenomenon and we can tell the definite time about when it originated.

→ Many scholars such as Herodotus, Plato, Aristotle, etc. wrote a lot that is quite similar to present-day Sociology.

→ As a subject, Sociology originated after the French Revolution of 1789 when many changes came in society.

→ Many scholars such as Auguste Comte, Herbert Spencer, Emile Durkheim, and Max Weber stressed the study of social order, conflict, stability, and change. Consequently, the origin of Sociology took place.

→ Three major processes contributed to the establishment of sociology as a separate discipline and these were

• French Revolution and Enlightenment Movement
• Development of Natural Sciences and
• Industrial Revolution and Urbanisation.

→ Many scholars contributed to the advent of the French Revolution. They challenged the authority of the Church and did not follow the Church’s orders blindly. This encouraged the people to solve their problems in a logical manner.

→ During 16th and 17th Centuries, Natural Sciences made great progress. This progress motivated social thinkers to invent something in the social sector.

→ A new belief came forward that as natural sciences understand the biological world, the same method can be used on social phenomena.

→ Sociologists such as Comte, Spencer, Durkheim tried to understand the social phenomena in the same way and they were quite successful in their effort.

→ In the 18th Century, Industrial Revolution came in Europe, and consequently, industries and urban centres emerged a great deal.

→ Many problems originated in cities and a need was felt about the existence of science that could understand them. Response to this need came in the form of Sociology.

→ In 1839, the word ‘Sociology’ was used for the first time by Auguste Comte. That’s why he is known as the father of Sociology. The literal meaning of Sociology is the Science of society.

→ Many scholars call Sociology a science because it uses scientific methods which help in drawing up conclusions. Its rules are universal and they can predict.

→ Many scholars do not consider Sociology, a science because they believe that it lacks experimentation and objectivity. It lacks terminology and it is quite difficult to collect data in it.

→ There exist two schools about the subject matter of Sociology and these are Formalistic School and Synthetic School.

→ According to the Formalistic school of Sociology, it is an independent science that studies the forms of social relations. Simmel, Tonnies, Vierkandt and Von Wiese are the exponents of this school.

→ According to the synthetic school of Sociology, it is not an independent science because it is a synthesis of other social sciences and takes help from them to create its subject matter. Durkheim, Hobhouse, Sorokin, etc. are the major exponents of this school.

→ Sociology holds a very important place in our daily lives as it studies different institutions, helps in social progress, solves different problems, and forms programmes of social welfare.

→ Individualism: The feeling in which an individual thinks only about himself instead of thinking about society.

→ Capitalism: It is a system of economic enterprise which is based on market exchange. The meaning of Capital is any asset including property, money, and machines, which is used to produce commodities for sale or invested in the market to earn profits. This system is based on means of production and private ownership of assets.

→ Values: Ideas of individuals or groups about which is good or bad, proper and desirable.

→ Macro Sociology: Study of major groups, organisations .and social systems.

→ Micro Sociology: Study of human behaviour in the context of face-to-face interaction.

→ Industrialisation: The age of social and economic, a change which converted human society from rural to industrial.

→ Urbanisation: The process in which a large number of people start to live in urban areas. It results in the growth of urban areas.
