Durkheim, the âfounding fatherâ of sociology. David Ãmile Durkheim was a French sociologist, social psychologist and philosopher. He formally established the academic discipline and â with Karl Marx and Max Weber â is commonly cited as the principal architect of modern social science and father of sociology.
Some consider Ibn Khaldun, a 14th-century Tunisian, Arab, Islamic scholar from North Africa, to have been the first sociologist and father of sociology; his Muqaddimah was perhaps the first work to advance social-scientific reasoning on social cohesion and social conflict.
