Different forms of
society
Hunting and Gathering Society

This is recognized as the earliest and

simplest form of society. It is generally
characterized by its small size and is
composed mainly of families. They are
nomadic because they spend most of their
time searching for food and thus, have no
permanent territory.
 Pastoral Society

this type of society is characterized by the

domestication of animals for food for a
more stable and predictable food supply.
Pastoral communities have larger
populations than hunting and gathering
societies and remain longer in one place.
 Horticultural Society

Primarily engages in the small-scale

cultivation of plants, fruits, and vegetables
and the domestications of animals.
Horticultural societies are semi-nomadic,
which means that they travel to another
place when they have already depleted the
resources in one area. In this society, roles
and responsibilities are more clearly
defined with many tasks assigned
according to gender.
Agrarian or Agricultural Society

This type of society is further evolution of

the pastoral and horticultural societies.
Agriculture involves the large-scale and
long-term cultivation of crops and
domestication of animals. This society is
characterized by improved technology and
the use of tools to aid in farming. Improved
technology and farming methods result in
increased production, giving rise to a
growing population in agricultural societies.
Feudal Society

It is based on the ownership of land.

Feudal societies arose out of development
in Western Europe during Medieval times,
when rival kingdoms were engaged in
conflict over resources, particularly land. In
a feudal society, rulers grant their followers
or vassals the right to manage parcels of
land.
Industrial Society

It is based on the use of specialized

machinery in the production of goods and
services. The advances in science and
technology in the late 18th century resulted
in the Industrial Revolution, which in turn
gave rise to new production and industrial
methods, as well as innovations in
transportation and communication.
Post-Industrial Society

It is marked by the establishment of

societies based on knowledge, information,
and the sale of services. Led by the human
mind and aided by highly advanced
technology, the trend has shifted from
industry to the generation, storage,
manipulation, and sale of information.
Information influences the behavior of
people and has thus become a very
important commodity in the post-industrial
society. Members of this society have
higher educational attainment, better
training, and specialized roles.
