Question

Write short note on Sociology as a Science.

Answer 1

Many people do not consider the social or soft sciences—such as sociology and psychology—to be “true” or hard sciences—such as chemistry and physics. ... Thus, whether or not a particular discipline like sociology is a science depends more on the methods used than on the particular subject area studied.

Answer 2

Answer:

Sociology tries to classify types and forms of social relationships, especially of institutions and associations. It tries to determine the relations between different parts or factors of social life. ... Sociology is thus a science as social psychology, clinical psychology and other sciences concerning man.
