Abstract:

The question that is at the heart of contemporary sociological theory is the question of human agency and structure, that is, in a broader context, this question refers to the relationship of members of society towards the natural environment, technology, economy and social systems. Recently, there are two trends that are unique in social theory. First, the connection with philosophy, especially ontology, was renewed. Second, there was also an interest in the connection between action and institutions, actors and organizations, or in the most general sense, structure and agency. As an accompanying appearance of a new wave of great theories spreading through sociology in the eighties of the 20th century, the connections between sociology and philosophy were once again strengthened.

Key words: Sociology, social sciences, structure, action, synthesis
