Part 3 (C) (Baranov collection V-19)

Read the text and complete tasks C1 - C4.

“Society is the most complex social organism and it is impossible to evaluate it in a one-dimensional coordinate system. It is necessary to use a group, a set of criteria, each of which would modify the leading (main, decisive) criterion in relation to different periods human history and to certain spheres of society.

It should be borne in mind that in publications on this topic, social progress and social progress are usually considered as synonyms. Meanwhile, they are not identical, as well as the relations connected with them. Social relations are only a part of social relations. Consequently, social progress includes progressive changes both in the social sphere itself (relationships between classes, intra-class changes, relations between town and country, physical and mental labor, the development of the social class structure of society and the political superstructure), and beyond it: production (economic), ideological, foreign policy and other relations. This means that the criteria of social progress should also capture broader phenomena and processes than social ones proper.

In order for a general sociological criterion of progress to be established, it is also necessary to define an area of ​​social activity that would have no alternative. This means that such an area cannot be eliminated in any society, in any historical epoch.

She must be one common feature, an indispensable property for any society, and a fundamental, decisive area, without which its existence and development is impossible. Another requirement for it: the continuity of operation, which ensures the continuity of society, and hence the objective possibility of comparison, comparison of levels of development”
