THE PLACE OF SOCIAL INTERACTION IN THE NIGERIAN SCHOOL SYSTEM: IMPLICATION FOR GROUP LIFE
Abstract
For any society to exist, it has to fulfil its functional prerequisites. These include adaptation, goal attainment, integration and coping with the demands of the society’s members. The society in itself does not exist and cannot do anything: it is after all no more than a collection of individuals. Therefore it is necessary to persuade the members to act in certain ways, which will enable society to fulfil its needs and ensure its continuation. Culture performs this task by emphasizing certain values, which guide members to act in a particular way and this ensures that the functional prerequisites are carried out. While doing this, every member of the society must understand that they are mutually related and interdependent.
