widely used by the "Chicago School" to establish Urban Sociology. She received the Nobel Prize in 1931.



AUGUSTE COMTE (1798-1857) - CORRECT ANSWER The founder of Sociology in the West that coined the
term "Sociology." He felt the scientific method should be applied to the study of society (POSITIVISM)
and that society was made up of forces of stability (SOCIAL STATICS) and forces of change (SOCIAL
DYNAMICS).



CHARLES HORTON COOLEY (1864-1929) - CORRECT ANSWER As co-founder of Symbolic Interaction, he
argued that the Self is formed through a lifelong process of interpretation of other's reactions to our
self-concept (LOOKING-GLASS SELF).



EMILE DURKHEIM (1858-1917) - CORRECT ANSWER In his research on suicide, he argued that society is
held together by SOCIAL INTEGRATION. Those with weak social ties experience ANOMIE, or
normlessness.



HARRIET MARTINEAU (1802-1876) - CORRECT ANSWER The Founder of Modern Sociology, she published
"Theory and Practice of Society in America," in 1837. She is most often remembered for her translations
of Comte from French into English.



KARL MARX (1818-1883) - CORRECT ANSWER His works are the basis for CONFLICT THEORY. He argued
that CLASS CONFLICT between the Bourgeoisie (Owners) and the Proletariat (Workers) is the source of
all social change, and that the ideology of society (its belief system and thought) is the product of the
age and place of its occurrence.



GEORGE HERBERT MEAD (1863-1931) - CORRECT ANSWER As a co-founder of Symbolic Interaction, he
saw ROLE-TAKING as crucial to the development of Self in children. In a similar approach to FREUD, he
defined the "I" and "ME" as unsocialized and socialized parts of the Self.

, MAX WEBER (1864-1920) - CORRECT ANSWER In "The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism," he
argued that religion gave rise to Capitalism, not class conflict, as argued by Marx. He believed that the
process of gathering data must be value-free and as scientific as possible. Replication of research is
important.



W.E.B. DU BOIS (1868-1963) - CORRECT ANSWER As the first African-American to earn a Ph.D. from
Harvard, he founded the Department of Sociology at Atlanta University, and was a founding member of
the NAACP. From 1896 to 1914, he published a yearly book on race relations



IBN KHALDUN (1332-1406) - CORRECT ANSWER Wrote "The Science of Civilization" that predated Comte
and Sociology by 500 Years. His ideas predated Durkheim on Social Cohesion by 550 years and Mills'
insight into Sociology as the intersection of the individual, society, and history by 600 years.

WILLIAM ISAAC THOMAS (1863-1947) and DOROTHY SWAINE THOMAS (1899-1977) - CORRECT ANSWER
As co-founders of Symbolic Interaction, they argued that behavior is the result of the specific way we

our subjective reality, not of reality that exists objectively.
