Instantly, other thinkers would raise a hue and cry that the truth is just the contrary, that is, the society is the product of an individual and another.

Answer 2

Answer:

“Man is by nature a social animal; an individual who is unsocial naturally and not accidentally is either beneath our notice or more than human. Society is something that precedes the individual.” Man cannot live alone

Explanation:

Man is a social animal and that. Almost all sociological thinkers agree that there is a very close relation between the individual and the society. Whether any particular individual could have been nurtured under conditions in which there did not exist any society is a different question; but the fact remains that without a social environment, be it his home, his community or his state, no stability would be brought to his status as an individual.

One would almost conclude from the foregoing statement that the individual is a product of society.As McIver says, it may be pointless to enter into the controversy as to whether the individual came before the society, or the society came before the individual. We would like rather to concentrate our attention on the causes of the growth of the society and the role of the individual in it.

Of the several theories that seek to explain the relation between the society and the individual, the ‘theory of the Social Contract’ seeks to give a historic explanation to the matter. Enunciated in the seventeenth century by Thomas Hobbes in his The Leviathan, the theory conceives of a pre-society state of nature in which strife and killing was the rule, and man’s life was ‘poor, solitary, nasty, brutish and short’.

Quite naturally, therefore, man wanted to escape from the condition and a relation was consequently built up between human beings in the form of a social contract. The contract not only established a relation between them, but each individual suffered in himself a demolition of irresponsibility and brutish behavior.
