Discussion
Who among the following distinguished between 'industrial' and 'militant' societies ?
Answer: C
The distinction was drawn by Herbert Spencer.
In his Principles of Sociology, Spencer contrasted militant societies, organised for war, with centralised authority, compulsory cooperation and subordination of the individual to the state, with industrial societies, organised for production and trade, with voluntary cooperation, decentralisation and individual freedom. He expected social evolution to move from the first type to the second.
Durkheim distinguished mechanical and organic solidarity, Marx modes of production, and Saint-Simon wrote of an industrial society run by producers.
