Class assignment[edit]

Hello everyone, my name is Paul Joaseus, and I am doing an assignment for my sociology class. It basically involves me becoming one of you and editing a Wikipedia page. My goal is to add more content to this page and I'd appreciate any critique or help that you'd be willing to offer me. Thanks and have a nice day.

External link to NGO India?[edit]

The External Links lead to a website of an Indian NGO. The pages on that site are not relevant to the article on social change. Suggest deletion. H. Peston (talk) 06:43, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Social Investment[edit]

Social Investment is tangible and/or intangible resource inputs in any social institution, social group and a society that can bring about a social change.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Sarkar Sagi (talk • contribs) 13:43, 6 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Paragraph in need of revision[edit]

The second paragraph in the Global Demographic Shifts section is poorly written and lacks citations. It needs to be either revised or removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BenniBraun (talk • contribs) 04:23, 3 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Adding text to the types of change section[edit]

Dear editors of the social change page. I propose adding new text to the "Types of change" section. Please see below the suggested text:

From a systems science perspective, social change can differ based on whether it is (a) internally or (b) externally driven, and (c) non-structural or (d) structural. ^[1] Internally-driven non-structural change refers to any variation within the range permitted by the structure of a social system because of regular internal functioning. Externally-driven non-structural change is any variation within the range permitted by the structure of a social system, as a reaction to the system’s environment. Internally-driven structural change refers to any modification of a social system’s structure because of regular internal functioning or as a proactive effort to adjust to change in the system’s environment. Finally, Externally-driven structural change is any modification of a social system’s structure by its environment.
