Answers
Answer:
Social control in the town, villages, and cities is a formal type of control.
It regulates the behaviors of a population collectively through the use of laws, customs and social norms.
Explanation:
There are many agencies such as police, courts and social security agencies, that reinforce the social control. It is really effective as it adds the factors of love, respect, and submission to the social system.
Answer:
Family is the most important agency for social control because it is the place where people socialized first. In family, he/she learns the method of living, how to behave in public and convention etc. They are taught to respect elders and respects the laws and obey the rules of social controls. Next is neighbourhood and it’s the first community with which person comes in contact with. These neighbourhoods strengthen the particular family as a social agency. The elder member of the locality keeps group modes alive. Law is also a power method to control through the government.
