Nature of Sociology:
Sociology is the study of the society that we live in. It analyzes the various kinds of behaviors under various patterns and under sociological influences.
How do the findings of sociology help us in our day to day lives? It helps us to a great deal because when we know what sociological factors are affecting us in a negative way, then we can minimize the damage by adapting to an alternative lifestyle. All humans in the current day world live under extremely pressurizing circumstances. So, sociology studies the social rules, and the role that humans play by living these rules. It also studies why human beings bind by these rules. Also, how does human social life impact their behavior in general is studied by sociology. In fact, whether we realize it or not, most of the problems that are caused in the society are due to human beings only.There are criminals, convicts, rapists, and murders. However, somewhere society has played an important and distinguishing role to have caused such psychological behaviors in people. Sociology also sheds light on how people should behave in a responsible way with others in the society.
All of us as human beings are sensitive creatures because we can express and feel emotions. These emotions can play havoc with the human psyche if misused or misunderstood. One has to understand the repercussions of it in a social environment and act responsibly. This brings us to the conclusion that society has to function responsibly keeping in mind the repercussions of social behavior.
Scope Of Sociology
There are two schools of thought with different viewpoints regarding scope and subject matter of sociology- formal school and synthetic school. According to formal school sociology was conceived to be a social science with a specifically defined field. This school had George Simmel, Ferdinand Tonnies, Alfred Vierkandt and Leopord Von Wiese as its main advocates. On the other hand the synthetic school with Durkheim, Hobhouse and Sorokin advocated a synthesis in form of coordination among all social sciences.

Nature of Sociology:
Sociology is an independent science. Sociology like any other discipline have its own area of study and not fully dependent on other discipline.
Sociology is a social science not a physical science. Social sciences focus on various aspect of human society while physical sciences deal with natural phenomena. Thus Sociology is a social science as it deals with man and his social activities.
Sociology is a categorical and not a normative discipline. Sociology is value-free. It is only interested in ‘what is’ and not ‘what should be’ or ‘ought to be’.
Sociology is pure science and not an applied science. As a Pure science it is only interested in acquisition of knowledge, it has nothing to do with application of that knowledge. Like Physics is a pure science while engineering is its application.
Sociology is relatively an abstract science and not a concrete science. It studies the society in an abstract (Theoretical not physical) way. Like, Sociology is not interested in particular families but in family as a social institution that exists in all societies.
Sociology is a generalising science and not a particularising science. Sociology is not interested in particular events rather it studies events in a general way. Example: History study French Revolution but Sociology will be interested in revolutions in general.
Sociology is a general science and not a special social science. Like Economy or Political Science, Sociology does not focus on only one aspect of human activity. As it has to deal with society it includes all aspects of human life in a general way.Sociology is both a rational and an empirical science. It studies the social phenomena in scientific way. It is based on reason (logic), observation and experimentation.
Scope of Sociology:
Scope of Sociology is very narrow and limited. It need not study all the events connected with social science.
Sociology studies the social relationships. Furthermore only forms of social relationships are to be studied and not its content.Sociology also focuses on the mental and psychic relationship which links men together in society.
Aim of sociology is to interpret and understand social behaviour
hope it helps
