Social Structure : Stratification and Social Process in Society

Question

Compare co-operation and accomodation.

Answer

Comparison between Co-operation and Accomodation :

1. Co-operation and accomodation can be considered separately. But they are the processes of association.

2. They do not represent dissociation.

3. Both co-operation and accomodation help in the formation of groups life, consensus, integration, assimilation and harmony in the society. They do not emerge in isolation.

4. Co-operation represents all relations among persons or groups which work together towards a common end. Whereas, accomodation and assimilation represent different stages or degrees in the co-operative process.

5. In accommodation barriers may break partially, social distance may be reduced and formal relations may also be established. Under these circumstances groups can work together through co-operation and thus accomodation takes place.
