Abstract

Social changes are variations from the accepted modes of life whether due to alteration in geographical conditions, in cultural equipment, composition of the population or ideologies, whether brought about by diffusion or inventions with the groups. Social changes is a universal social phenomenon. It is a phenomenon of transformation. The nature is never at rest. It is changeful. Change is ever present in the world, because change is the Law of Nature. Society is subject to constant changes. Social change has occurred in all societies and at all times. Of all the objects we study, none changes before our very eyes as the society itself. Incessant changeability is the very inherent nature of the human society. Individuals may strive for security and stability, societies may faster an illusion of permanence and the belief in eternity may persist unshaken. Yet the fact remains true that society like all other phenomenon changes inevitably. Society is influenced by many forces and factors that irresistibly cause changes. India of today is different from the India of yesterday; what it is going to be tomorrow is hence, difficult to predict. In course of a decade or two, significant changes can and do occur in human society. The territory which the sociologist explores, changes even as he explores it. This fact has an important bearing both on his methods and on his results. Here at least we can seek the principles of eternal change. What then, do we mean by change and social change? This paper highlight the social change as a phenomenon of transformation
