Some sociologists draw a distinction between Gemeinschaft(community) and Gesellschaft (society). In a community people are tied together mainly by traditional bonds and roles, in a Gesellschaft mainly by contractual and similar relationships.
Ferdinand Tonnies (1855-1936) was a German sociologist who is best known for his study of social groups. He developed the concepts he he published in 1887 as "Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft" (translated as "community and society") which illustrates the interaction between close-knit "communities" and an emerging global market "society". The term 'Tonnies Community' is a shorthand reference to these elements of society.
Ferdinand Tönnies made significant contributions to sociology, particularly in the areas of social theory and community studies. He is best known for his distinction between Gemeinschaft (community) and Gesellschaft (society), which has had a lasting impact on sociological thought.

The primary goal of a society, of any individual society, is to sustain that society. No society exists in order that it may eradicate itself or purposefully allow itself to be destroyed. If the society does not try to perpetuate itself and continue to exist, nothing else that makes the society important to its citizens - its members - can be accomplished.
a human society may be distinguished from animal society by its
