Who made the following statement? "Society is a web of social relations."

  • A.MacIver
  • B.Dominique Conchon Lapierre
  • C.Talcott Parsons
  • D.Mahatma Gandhi

Answer: A

'Society is a web of social relations' was said by MacIver, the sociologist who wrote Society: A Textbook of Sociology with C. H. Page. He held that society is not a group of people but the system of relationships among them. Talcott Parsons, Gandhi and Dominique Conchon Lapierre are not the source of the statement. Robert MacIver, with Charles Page, wrote Society: An Introductory Analysis in 1949, in which society is defined as a system of usages, procedures, authority and mutual aid. Parsons wrote The Social System, and Gandhi wrote on society in other contexts.
