Speaking of Change, we imagine something that happens after
time period; we will also deal with differences in circumstances observed
between before and after a certain period of time. To be able to state
the difference. Initial traits should be observed carefully - though all continue
changed. Change is a symptom almost found anywhere and
at any time. But not for definition, Social Change is often discussed
without defining the concept and the concept of social change has been used with
various ways by researchers to show everything from attitude changes
to the historical evolution of society.
Most literature on the definition of Social Change, begins without
define it with the concept of change. Social Change is treated as if-
will have the meaning of intuitive facts. Most definitions are discussed
Social change in a broad sense. As Wilbert Moore says for example.
It defines Social Change as an important change of structure
social, and the intended Social structure are patterns of behavior and interaction social. Moore enters into the definition of Social Change various expressions about
structure, norms / values and cultural phenomena. Other definitions also cover that field
large. Social change is defined as variations or modifications within each
aspects of social processes, social patterns and social forms, as well as any inter pattern modification
established relationships and standards of behavior.
Sometimes changes occur only partially and are limited in scope, regardless
has a major impact on other elements of the system, for example, the power of the system
Democratic politics lies in its ability to face challenges, reduce
protest and resolve the conflict by holding a partial reshuffle without
endangers state stability and continuity as a whole. However, on
Other opportunities, Changes cover the whole (or at least cover the core)
aspects of the system, generate a thorough change, and create a new system that
fundamentally different from the old system that ever existed. Changes like this
exemplified by all major social revolutions.
The boundary between the two types of change is indeed rather vague. Changes inside
the system often accumulates and eventually touches the core of the system, then turns into
system changes. In the social system often seen changes that occur on a regular basis
gradually and characteristically as a whole and lead to quantitative features
and qualitative.
