Modern society is an extremely complex thing.It relies completely upon a massive network of interrelationships between the individuals and groups which it composed of.Each part of society supports each other part.To live in such a world usually involves finding a niche for yourself, giving your contribution to the whole machine, and in return the machine supports you.

Modern society has its disadvantages though:

 

a) It is impersonal ‑ It only guarantees the material needs of a person.

The impersonal way in which goods and services are provided can increase

the likelihood of emotional problems.

 

b) It does not tolerate anything which does not fit the system.

People who deviate from what is considered the 'norm' are 'labelled'

and rejected by society in the main.

 

c) Everyone is so dependent on everyone else that they are frequently

affected by things they have no control over eg. industrial disputes.

 

d) If the system collapses, everything collapses.

 

People do not have a broad enough range of skills to survive if thrown into a different situation eg. war, economic collapse, natural catastrophe.
