SOCIAL CHANGE IN SOCILOGY
[edit]
What is social change? Define it simply as shifts in the attitudes and behavior that charac-
terize a society. So, why and how do societies evolve? The idea here is that social change
is largely an adaptation to improvements in a societyís technological environment. As a
societyís production possibilities improve due to technological advance, it becomes in the
self interest of some of its citizens to modify their behavior to take advantage of the new
circumstances. The number may be small at Örst, and the Örst adaptors may seem to be
heretics. But, if technological progress continues, more and more of its citizens will follow.
Often attitudes lag behavior. The individuals participating in an activity may not condone
it, as hypocritical as this may seem. What at Örst seems abnormal will eventually become
conventional. Social change, then, is simply a shift in the fraction of society ascribing to a
particular attitude or mode of behavior. There may be no better illustration of this phe-
nomena than the change in sexual mores that occurred during the 20th century.
