HEY MATE YOUR ANSWER IS
Auguste Comte (1798-1857), a French thinker, enunciated the Positivist Philosophy. He followed the Enlightenment tradition which believed in universalism. The Enlightenment thinkers believed that what was applicable to one society was valid for all the others. They, therefore, thought that it was possible to formulate universal laws which would be valid for the whole world.
Comte also favored this universal principle and was opposed to individualism which the Romanticists were preaching. Comte was a disciple of Henri Saint- Simon (1760-1825), a Utopian socialist, from 1814 to 1824. Apart from Saint-Simon, the other influences on him were those of John Locke (1632-1704), David Hume (1711-1776) and Immanuel Kant (1724-1804). All these influences went into the making of his own system of philosophy. The main books he published were titled: The Course of Positive Philosophy and The Course of Positive Politics.
It is in the first book, published in six volumes from 1830 to 1842' that he elaborated his theoretical model about history.
