What holds society together?

-Sociologists believe that society is made up of people, groups, and social institutions (e.g.,
family, politics, economics, education, religion, media) that interact with each other to create
large, common bonds. For example, the social and cultural bonds may be ethnic or racial, based
on socio-economic status, political interests, or due to shared beliefs, values, and activities.
