Answers
Differences between Association and Society:
The following are the points of differences between association and society:
Firstly, society is a system of social relationships which are invisible and intangible. It is the result of natural evolution. Whereas association is a group of people. It is deliberately created or is artificial.
Secondly, society is older than association, it is in existence since man appeared on the earth while association arose at a later stage when man learn to organise himself for the pursuit of some particular purpose.
Thirdly, man cannot live without society. Society will exist as long as man exists. The membership of society is compulsory. On the other hand, man may live without being a member of any association at all. Association may be only transitory. The membership of association is voluntary.
Lastly, society comes into existence for the general well being of the individuals. Hence, the aim of society is general. It is marked by both co-operation and conflict. It may be organised or unorganised. But association, on the other hand, is formed for the pursuit of some particular interest or interests. Hence, the aim of association is particular. It is based on co-operation. It must be organised.
