Abstract
Sociology has become one of the indispensable sciences today to study the general characteristics of all types of social phenomena in addition to studying the mutual relationships between these phenomena.
Sociology is similar in its importance to the social sciences to the importance of mathematics to the natural sciences, as it is impossible to study natural science, for example, without some knowledge of mathematics. Likewise, it is not possible to study economics or political science, for example, without ignoring sociology.
Sociology is a new academic trend growing among other social sciences, including economics, politics, anthropology, history, and psychology, but its founding ideas, in any case, have a long history and can be traced back to a mixture of human knowledge and knowledge. common philosophy.
Sociology as it now emerged as a scientific formulation in the early nineteenth century as an academic response to the challenge of modernity. The world became more and more integrated and interconnected, while the lives of individuals became more individualistic and isolated. Therefore, sociologists have tried to understand the transformations that have taken place in social groups, trying to develop a remedy for social disintegration.
