Abstract

Urban sociology is an essential. Control of Sociology, it is a branch of Sociology. In urban Sociology, as rule humanism, we contemplate social connection however to a restricted degree and in a shorter setting. The sort of social connection contemplated in Urban Sociology, as is clear from the name, are the relations which happen in an Urban Society. In this way urban sociology is an investigation of urban culture. The urban culture is contemplated and explored by systems and methods, which are of course experimental. The investigation of urban culture can be general and also particular. The paper reads out the contextual contemporary urban sociology and evaluates the appropriateness of the adopted and followed practices in a social set-up.
