Toennies has characterized the natural will as "the psychological equivalent of the human body." It is inborn and arrives at its maturity by gradual growth just as bud blossoms into flower.
The weight of Toennies’ analysis is very similar to that of Marx in that the basic orientation of individuals in a capitalist society simply reflects their immediate and practical struggle for economic survival.
Toennies’ pregnant social types were not able to give birth to an image of a new and unique social form.

 Online Encyclopedia and Dictionary - Ferdinand Toennies
Ferdinand Tönnies (July 26, 1855, near Oldenswort (Eiderstedt) - April 9, 1936, Kiel, Germany) was a German sociologist.
In pure sociology - theoretically -, these two normal types of will are to be strictly separated; in applied sociology - empirically - they are always mixed.

 Alan Klæbel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
The sociological basis for a new theoretical framework rests on a conceptual synthesis of the social theories of Georg Simmel and Ferdinand Tönnies.
Transposed to IR theory, this suggests that the key to understanding the historical developments of world politics is to be found in the structural interactions and processes that continuously generate social phenomena – these structures are what Simmel called forms of sociation.
Simmel’s argument that the proper objects of sociological study are structural ideal types of the forms of sociation, permits furthermore an fruitful synthesis with the sociology of Ferdinand Tönnies.

 SingaporeMoms - Parenting Encyclopedia - Normal type
The typological term normal type (in German: Normaltyp) has been coined by Ferdinand Tönnies (1855-1936, German sociologist).
It should not be confused with Max Weber’s term ideal type (in German Idealtyp).
Nevertheless, Weber's term survived in the sociological community, since his Idealtyp helped to understand social forces, and for him "sociology" had both to explain and to understand things - a daring combination, but successful in the eyes of many sociologists.

 Phil's UHCL Work: Progressive Change
Progressive theories of social change (such as those of Auguste Comte and Ferdinand Toennies) are almost comforting in their descriptions of the development of civilisation towards ever more advanced states.
Progress is seen as inevitable; humans cannot help but move gradually from a traditional society in which families tend their own fields and are in awe of religion, to a rational and capitalist world of cities and technology in which individuals are part of a larger production system.
For example, while Toennies' Gesellschaft is an economically efficient world, it is at the expense of family life.

In this paper, I will start with a rather traditional but at the same time influential concept that was developed by the German sociologist Ferdinand Tönnies.
Tönnies” book Gemeinschaft und Gesellschaft (Community and Society), which at first was largely unnoticed, has since become one of the most influential works in sociology and the politics that have been produced in the name of community.
A physical barrier is erected to keep out those who are poor or who are seen as a threat.”24 Thus it can also be necessary to change these attitudes or in serious cases – for example, the Ku-Klux-Clan – to work for the dissolution of the group.
