Is the study of human behavior in group setting.
The term Sociology was first used by a French Philosopher Auguste Comte (1798 - 1857) in 1843.The term sociology is a combination of two words: Socius in Latin and Logos in Greek. Socius means sharing in group and Logos meaning study/ science of.
-Literally therefore sociology would be the study of sharing.
-According to Comte, Sociology was a science of society; also called social physics.
-Comte is credited to be the founder of positivist perspective/ paradigm in sociology.

.He believed that society has 3 levels of consciousness and develops through three stages, from simple to complex:

•Magic stage (Theological) – human beings tend to explain social phenomena (issues) by use of myths and religion.
•Metaphysical stage (Rational) – social phenomena are explained using philosophy or Reason.
•Scientific stage (Positivist) – science is used to explain social phenomena.
