Abstract
This paper examines the preconditions for the emergence of sociology, driven by several key factors, including the need to understand social change in the rapidly evolving modern world, which allows for a better understanding of current processes and phenomena in society. A historical perspective helps illuminate the evolution of the social sciences and their influence on the formation of modern society, and also reveals sociology's interdisciplinary connections with other disciplines, such as philosophy, psychology, economics, and political science, deepening the understanding of these interrelations
