The thoughts of Auguste Comte (1798-1857), who coined the term sociology, while dated and riddled with weaknesses, continue in many ways to be important to contemporary sociology.
Auguste Comte was born in Montpellier, HÃ©rault on 19 January 1798. After attending the LycÃ©e Joffre and then the University of Montpellier, Comte was admitted to the Ãcole Polytechnique in Paris. The Ãcole Polytechnique was notable for its adherence to the French ideals of republicanism and progress.
