Which one of the following is not true about the real nature of Sociology?

The correct answer is Sociology is pure Science.
Key Points

• Sociology is the Science of study of society, hence no pure scientific method to study humans possible.
• Sociology is abstract because with new studies arises new theories
• Eg. Marx gave conflicting theory of Division of Labour, But Durkheim gave functional basis to Division of Labour.
• Sociology is empirical i.e study uses non positivist observable data rather than facts.

Thus Sociology is not a pure science, rather a new body of knowledge.
