The document discusses two main schools of thought regarding the scope of sociology: the formalistic school, which views sociology as a narrow study focused on individual behavior and relationships, and the synthetic school, which sees sociology as a broader discipline that examines social problems and interactions within society. Critics of the formalistic school argue that its perspective is too limited and disconnected from other sciences, while supporters of the synthetic school advocate for a comprehensive approach to studying social life. Key figures mentioned include Hobb-House and Sorokin, promoting a more expansive view of sociology's scope.
