Abstract:
After an examination of Parsons's theory of social action, the author demonstrate that sociology need to pass over to a new paradigm. This because Parsons' theory of general system of action shows that a theory of society cannot be based on a theory of action. It is investigate the possibility of finding grounds for a theory of society not based on a concept of action, as has already been suggested by a theory of social autopoietic systems by Niklas Luhmann.
