The study of rural sociology can help
in undrstanding & implementing the
factors related to development of the
rural area .
------------------------------------------
Sociology is the study of society and
human social action.
Rural sociology is a field of sociology
associated with the study of life in
small towns and the country. It is a
scientific study of social arrangements
and behaviour amongst peoples that are
distanced from points of concentrated
activity. Much of rural sociology
involves the examination of statistical
data.
-----------------------------------------
A sociologist studies the social rules
and processes that organize people in
society as individuals and as members
of associations, groups, and institutions,
as well as how these rules and processes
develop.
Sociological research ranges from the
analysis of short contacts between
anonymous individuals on the street to
the study of global social processes.
Most sociologists work in one or more
specialties or subfields. Additionally,
sociology tends to deal with the how
and why of society, while still looking
at the when and where.
