Question

Name the three factors responsible for the development of Sociology as an independent discipline.

Answer 1

The Industrial Revolution brought about massive changes in areas such as culture, industry, politics, technology, science and communication 

Factories and industrial towns were built and people left rural areas and their way of life to go to the cities for work. Canals and roads were built which made transportation easier and increased production of goods



Capitalism grew with technological change as factory owners who controlled the means of production became wealthy.
