Sociology
social control
In Class 11 Sociology, this topic explains how societies encourage people to follow accepted norms, values and rules. Students learn to understand social control through everyday practices such as family guidance, peer expectations, customs and community approval, as well as formal institutions, laws and penalties. The topic also introduces the difference between informal and formal control and shows how rewards, sanctions and socialisation influence behaviour. It helps students use the concept of social control accurately while studying terms and concepts in sociology.
