	Buddhism and Social Action
		The social karma -- the establishment of conditioned behavior patterns -- of a particular culture is and is not the aggregate of the karma of the individuals who comprise the culture.
		Social action as a training in self-awareness (and compassionate awareness of others) may be a discipline more appropriate to some individual temperaments, and, indeed, to some cultures and times, than to others.
		Social action starkly confronts the actor with the sufferings of others and also confronts him with his own strong feelings which commonly arise from such experience, whether they be feelings of pity, guilt, angry partisanship or whatever.

	LABRIOLA-MCH2
		But these social conditions themselves have been subsequently defined by the theory of classes, the genesis of which is in the manner of the different occupations, granted the distribution of labor, that is to say, granted the relations which co-ordinate and bind men together in a definite form of production.
		To carry back the explanation of their appearance to the general causes and the common conditions of the social structure, is a thing which harmonizes perfectly with the data of our doctrine; but to try to eliminate them, as certain affected objectivists of sociology would willingly do, is pure capriciousness.
		The entire sum of the conditions of life which has thus far dominated men will pass under the rule and the examination of men themselves, who will thus for the first time become the real masters of nature, because they will be the masters of their own association.

	Character and Social Process
		The social function of education is to qualify the individual to function in the role he is to play later on in society; that is, to mould his character in such a way that it approximates the social character, that his desires coincide with the necessities of his social role.
		Having stated that the social character is shaped by the mode of existence of a given society, I want to remind the reader of what has been said in the first chapter on the problem of dynamic adaptation.
		In this sense, we believe that individual psychology is fundamentally social psychology or, in Sullivan’s terms, the psychology of interpersonal relationships; the key problem of psychology is that of the particular kind of relatedness of the individual towards the world, not that of satisfaction or frustration of single instinctual desires.

	US Political Thought, Lecture 12
		Its proponents were bent on naturalizing the social conditions of the period, particularly those conditions which aroused the greatest controversy and conflict--the rapid growth of an impoverished working class, the huge gulf that had opened up between rich and poor, and the often filthy and disorganized conditions in the burgeoning industrial cities.
		To give prominence to structural factors would undercut the Social Darwinist emphasis on individual attributes and action as causes of social conditions and of the individual’s sole responsibility for his or condition.
		Sumner views social reform as little more than the use of the state to steal from “the rich, comfortable, prosperous, virtuous, respectable, educated, and healthy” (341) in order to give to “classes of people who have not been able to satisfy their own desires.

	Democratic governance in multicultural societies - Discussion Paper 30
		In order to account for the complexity of the issues involved, this paper adopts an interdisciplinary approach, through which a social science analysis of contemporary language conflicts and social conditions of democratic governance is co-ordinated with a legal analysis of linguistic rights as well as a policy analysis of multiculturalism.
		An analysis of the function of language in social interaction and its role in the constitution of ethnicity, informed by the sociology of language and socio-linguistics, provides the basis for a structural explanation of language conflicts in the modern nation-state and their changing logic under conditions of globalization.
		Empirical social research on linguistic revival movements in some post-Soviet societies has shown that such inverse language shifts in the context of ethno-nationalism are conditioned by a complicated set of factors, such as the perceived prestige of the respective languages, inter-generational linguistic change and patterns of language use in the public sector.
