I was the founder of sociology

I claimed that society is governed by laws and principles that could be understood using the scientific method (scientific observation)

I argued that societies contained both forces for stability and cooperation (social statics) and forces for conflict and change (social dynamics)

I believed society has always been divided into two groups - oppressed and oppressor

I argued that the economy is the strongest driving force for social change.

I was the creator of conflict theory

I was the creator of the functionalist perspective

I believed society existed because of broad consensus among its members.

I believed that human beings act on the basis of their understanding of a situation, and Sociologists must discover the personal meanings, values, beliefs, and attitudes that underlie human behavior

I believed in rationalization, or the mindset that emphasizes the use of knowledge, reason, and planning.

I studied life in an African American neighborhood in Philadelphia to bring attention to racial inequalities.
