Meaning of macrosocial




Manuel Penichet P

macrosocial
  18

In the study of society (men, women and children), sociologists generally used two approaches: the macro-social and the social. Macro and micro are two Greek prefixes that written at the beginning of some words mean: macro = large and micro = small.  Therefore the macrosociologia focuses on society on a large scale, composed of a large group of individuals, such as large companies, a club or association, a town or even a whole country. While the microsociology focuses on what they do and think the people individually and how they interact with other individuals.
