The introduction of sociology as “the study of society” or “the science of man” created a social upheaval in the nineteenth century that destroyed many traditions and social norms. Among these were challenges, to religion and the Divine Right of kings. During the 1960s, other traditions were being challenged by the feminist perspective, such as the role of family and the role of women.
What traditions and social norms in today’s society are being challenged in a similar manner?
