Social relation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In social science, a social relation or social interaction is any relationship between two or more individuals. Social relations derived from
individual agency form the basis of social structure and the basic object for analysis by social scientists. Fundamental inquiries into the nature
of social relations feature in the work of sociologists such as Max Weber in his theory of social action.
Categorising social interactions enables observational and other social research, such as Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft (lit. "Community and
Society"), collective consciousness, etc. However different schools and theories of sociology and other social sciences dispute the methods
used for such investigations.
