SORU:
According to Durkheim, what is mechanic solidarity and organic solidarity?
CEVAP:
Durkheim, in his work titled The Division of Labor in Society writes about mechanic solidarity and organic solidarity depending on social division of labor. Accordingly:
- a) Mechanical solidarity is observed in traditional societies where there is a simple division of labor based on resemblances. In this type of order and solidarity, collective consciousness and collective identity are more powerful and dominant than individual consciousness and identities.

According to Durkheim, mechanical solidarity is mainly observed in pre-industrial societies and organic solidarity in today’s industrial societies.
