The harmful and problematic
elements and the inconvenient situations for the society are
commonly known as Social
problems. The social problem does not happen temporarily,
it becomes more or less
permanent, and unified effort is needed for its remedy. So, the
social problem is such a state
of social life which impacts on the majority of the social
people and which is treated as
unwanted, and unified effort from the people of the
society is needed for its
prevention.
The social problems originate
from social indiscipline. The social disorder is the
disregard for traditional norms,
regulations, customs, conducts and behaviour in the
society. The social indiscipline
can be seen only when the influence of social rules and
regulations will be reduced from
a man’s life. It means when the social norms fails to
regulate the behaviour of a
person, then the moral deterioration of a person starts its
formation. The social
institutions become nonfunctional when the moral deterioration of
the society becomes massive. In
such a situation, various types of social problems can
happen to be generated.
The mentionable symptoms of
social indiscipline and anarchy are crimes, juvenile
crimes, drug addiction,
kidnapping, suicide, oppression of women, divorce, deterioration
of the law and order situation,
bribe, hijacking, terrorism, highway robbery, extortion,
nepotism, sexuality, outbreak of
sexual disease, child labour, negligence of the children,
murder and so on.
