2.1 Sociology
Sociology derives from Latin words, socius and logos. Socius means ‘society’ and logos means ‘knowledge’. Sociology itself is the scientific or systematic study of
society, including patterns of social relationship, social interaction, and culture. http:en.wikipedia.orgwikisociology.
Sometimes sociology has been described as the study of the social behavior of human beings, or the study of human groups. Sociology viewed as a
central discipline in the cluster of social or behavioral sciences because all these disciplines have arisen as a consequence of arbitrary historical processes, and
because they are still in the course of development. An alternative view acknowledges mentions that sociology is an
analytically distinct science, the science of social systems. Its subject matter is all social phenomena, observed and analyzed from a distinct and delimited
perspective.

According to Spencer 1986: 6, sociology can be defined as the human group of life. Human group have their own dynamics, their own out-comes, and
those cannot be necessarily explained in the term of qualities of their individual members. Meanwhile, Popenoe 1983: 2 mentioned that sociology is a systematic
and objective study of society and social behavior. Another definition of sociology comes from Smelser 1981: 4 in his book
entitled Sociology and Human Science. He states that sociology is a scientific study of society and social relation among human beings. Sociology is the science
of interaction among people and the effect of this interaction is on human behavior.
As we know that sociology happens not only in social field, but also in the literature field. Since there are many subjects under sociological field, the writer
only reviews the subject that has a connection with the topic of study and that has a contribution to help the data analysis.
