The major goal of sociology's pioneers like Comte and Durkheim was to establish sociology as a science separate from other fields like philosophy and biology, and to understand and explain the social world through systematic observation and analysis. They aimed to apply scientific methods to study social phenomena and develop laws that could explain social behavior.
"French philosopher August Comte coined the term, sociology, in 1839. He is generally considered the founder of this field. The first sociology course in the United States was taught at Yale University in 1876" (Essentials of Sociology, 7th Edition, D. Brinkerhoff, L. White, S. Ortega, & R. Weitz).
Henri de Saint-Simon was a French social theorist and one of the founding fathers of sociology. He believed in the importance of scientific methods and social organization to guide society. Saint-Simon's ideas influenced many sociologists and social reformers in the 19th century.
