This document discusses the dynamics of change and its effects on society. It covers several key points: 1) Social change is a complex, multi-causal process that takes place in all societies over time through both qualitative and quantitative changes. 2) The effects of change on society can be seen demographically, biologically, culturally, and technologically. Demographic changes like population growth can have both positive and negative social impacts. 3) Biological factors like increases or decreases in animal/plant populations or changes in human fertility and mortality can influence social change. Cultural changes in beliefs, customs, and laws can also drive social change or cause conflict. 4) Technological developments like industrialization, transportation

9. Demographic factors
 Demographic factors have been viewed from two different angles.
 They are the qualitative and quantitative
 Qualitatively refers to physical potentialities, mental abilities etc. that are determined by
genetic order.
 But quantitative aspect has been playing the most decisive role in causing social change.

10. Positive Effects
(a) The growth of population has a direct bearing upon the availability and
utilization of resources.
(b) More population brings about more innovations and discoveries.
(c) It encourages rapid growth in industrialization and urbanization.
(d) The high birth rate and an alarming growth in population also stimulates
attitude towards birth, death and family life.
(e) Due to growth of population Acts are passed by the government for the
control of population. For example, in India due to rapid population
growth, the government has introduced family planning programmes.

13. Negative Effects
(a) The growth of population has decreased the standard of living of the people in the society.
(b) The growth of population has given birth to a variety of problems like poverty, unemployment,
child labour, crime, juvenile delinquency and beggary.
(c) Increase in population leads to an increase of social differentiation and division of labour.
(d) It brings destructive social conflict and disorganization in migrant’s line.
(e) In the societies where the female population exceeds the male population, polygamy may flourish
and on the other hand, if the number of males exceeds the females, polyandry is likely to prevail.
 Demography plays a significant role in the socio-economic and political transformation of society. It
certainly brings drastic changes not only in the micro- structures but also in macro-structures.

14. Biological factor
 Biological factor plays an important role in the causation of social change.
An ordinarily biological factor refers to those which are concerned with the genetic constitution of
the human beings.
A biological factor includes both non-human beings such as animals, birds, herbs, insects, plants etc.
and human beings.
Human beings use animals, birds, plants and herbs according to the direction of his own culture.
At the same time human beings protect themselves from different harmful elements.
 If there is increase or decrease of these animals, birds, plants etc. it will bring a number of changes
in human society.

15. Biological factor
 Similarly rapid increase or decrease of population also brings a number of changes in
society.
 Rapid population growth influences our environment causes poverty, food shortage
and multiple health problems and thereby brings changes in society
 Different biological process like human procreation, fertility and mortality also
influence the rate of change in a society. Size, density, Migration, immigration etc.
bring a number of changes in society.

17. Cultural factor
 The changes can be seen in existing
culture
 Sometime changes in culture become
the source of communal riots
 Change in belief, faith, personal
community laws, Eating habits,
dressing, worshiping etc. belong to the
category of culture.
17

18. Technological factor
 The technological factors also play important role in causing social change.
 According to W.F. Ogburn, “Technology changes society by changing our
environments to which we In turn adopt.
This change is usually in the material environment and the adjustment that we make
with these changes often modifies customs and social institution initiates a
corresponding social change.
