A

one of the founders of sociology
“organic metaphor’- society is a human body which has small parts

First sociologist
More positive than Karl Marx

mechanical: following rules and living in harmony
conclusion: religion is essential, encourages mutual respect, proves change over time, adapted because society also changed. He appreciated that religion can serv as a powerful form of social glue holding people together.
