(2016). Understanding Culture, Society and Politics Lesson Proper: How Society is Organized People have organized themselves into groups with common rules of living. The organization of such a group is called society. Different institutions are found in every community, such as the family, kin relationships, childcare, and division of work based on gender and age. All societies, small or large, are organized around an uneven division of labor and decisionmaking. Present societies are expected to provide protection, economic security, law and order, and a sense of belonging to their . Societies usually adapt to changes around them, like in the environment or in technology. Most changes happen slowly, but some significant events such as war or revolution can completely transform societies. The Threefold Nature of Social Life

Applying Goethe’s method to social life, Rudolf Steiner thought that if we apply the phenomenological, participatory method to human social life as a multifaceted, multilayered whole, we can distinguish three different spheres of activity:   

cultural–everything involving the growth and expression of the human spirit: education, art, science, religion, journalism, and publishing legal or political–involving human rights and relationships between people and organizations economic–having to do with the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services

Human society, Steiner claimed, will only flourish if these three spheres are recognized and each is organized according to its own inherent principles, dynamics, and ideals.

Social Groups and Organizations Sometimes, organization refers to associational groups. It includes corporations, armies, schools, and banks. Society composes many of such organizations. A state is considered as a political organization, or school may represent an educational organization, and so on. They are all social organizations. Organization is a state of being or a condition in which various institutions in society are functioning by their recognized or implied purposes (Elliott and Merrill, 1950). Social organization or social system refers to the interdependence of parts in groups. These groups may differ in size and nature. It makes possible the complex activities where of a complex society participate in. Groups within Society People do not live in isolation. They live in groups. Social groups consist of two or more individuals who identify with one another and regularly interact as a result of shared norms, values, and expectations. Being in a group entails realizations of activities and events in one's life that help people build and define their stories, interests, and contributions to society. Different group categorization exists in society. Categories include primary and secondary groups, in-groups and out-groups and reference groups. Primary Group First formulated by Charles Horton Cooley, the concept of a primary group is an essential unit of social organization and social life. A primary group is characterized by personal and lasting relationships with its . It has been identified that relationships in a primary type of team is unconditional and not prearranged. Setting aside family relations, of primary groups share lots of things in common, like interests, stories, or personalities. The best example of a primary group is the nuclear family. Relationships and attachments organized in this group are permanent as one's identity, lifestyle, and stories are tied to this group. A group of close friends is another example of this group. The term 'primary' is used with these groups because they are the primary or main source of socialization and relationships. Relationships in primary groups give us security, love, and companionship. We also learn norms and values from our family and friends that stay with us for most of our lives.

Secondary Group By contrast, secondary groups are formal, small or large, and usually short term. These groups are typically found at work and school. An example of this group is a political party organized to plan the best campaign for the election. of the board meet infrequently and for only a short period. Team may have some similar interests, but the main purpose of the group is on the task instead of the relationships. Classroom and work environment are other examples of a secondary group. Sometimes, secondary groups become informal, and of the team get to know each other well; however, even if their friendships exist in a limited time, they will not necessarily remain close beyond. Unlike the primary group, play their roles in a secondary group based on arranged and conditional contract. of this group need not to convene based on shared interests or personalities.
