The development of sociology as an academic discipline was shaped within the context of multiple revolutionary intellectual, political, and socio-economic changes within Europe and the United States during the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries. Classical social theorists were also responding to social problems and issues emerging with the the development of modernity.
