Society as a system is distinguished by the close interconnection and interdependence of all its elements and subsystems. Just like in nature, everything is part of a single complex. Such that, by affecting or destroying one of its components, the very existence of the natural world can be threatened.
A complex system social connections and interactions pervades all spheres of society from top to bottom. Taking any political decision, we will be able to trace its consequences in all spheres. Let's take an example from our recent past. The implementation of privatization and denationalization in the economy, the introduction of market relations led to the destruction of the old one-party political system, change the entire system of legislation. Significant changes have also taken place in the sphere of spiritual culture.
Let us consider in more detail the basic concepts and definitions related to the characteristics of social ties and relationships.
The main types of social connections are functional and causal. Cause-and-effect relationships are distinguished in the case when one of the phenomena brings the other to life, is its basis. The easiest way to illustrate such connections is by examples of the interaction of the main spheres of society.
Functional connections can be traced in the interdependence of the goals and objectives carried out by the society and its individual elements. For example, the task of producing vital goods is inseparable from the distribution of the results of labor, the reproduction and socialization of a person, the implementation of management, and so on.
Both causal and functional relationships are always realized in unity. The first can be represented as a vertical, since one phenomenon precedes another in time. The latter are formed at the same moment in time.
To achieve its goals and objectives, society constructs a system of social relations - communications and related structures - social institutions. Under public relations refers to the relationships that arise between groups of people and within them in the process of the life of society. In accordance with the division of society into subsystems - spheres, scientists distinguish economic, social, political, spiritual. For example, relations in the sphere of distribution of material goods are economic, relations in the sphere of social management, decision-making on the coordination of public interests can be called political.
By their nature, these relations can be solidary (partnership), based on the coordination of the interests of the parties, or conflict (competitive), when the interests of the participants are opposite. In addition, relations differ in terms of the level of interaction: interpersonal, intergroup and international. But a number of their elements remain always unchanged.
In the structure of any relations a number of elements can be distinguished:
Participants (subjects) of relations;
An object of activity significant for the participants;
Needs (subject-object relations);
Interests (subject-subject relations);
Values (relationships between the ideals of interacting subjects).
The nature of social ties and relations changes in the process of social evolution, as society changes.

Answer from LIBERTA[guru]
At present, the most common and scientifically substantiated point of view is that society is viewed as a complex system with highest level self-sufficiency, being able unstable balance and obeying the objective laws of functioning and development
1. The economic sphere is a system of economic relations that arises and is reproduced in the process of material production. The basis of economic relations and the most important factor determining their specificity is the mode of production and distribution of material goods in society.
2. Social sphere - system social relations, i.e., relations between groups of people occupying different positions in social structure society. The study of the social sphere involves consideration of the horizontal and vertical differentiation of society, the allocation of large and small social groups, study of their structures, forms of implementation social control in these groups, analysis of the system of social ties, as well as social processes occurring at the intra- and intergroup level.
3. Political sphere (political and legal) - a system of political and legal relations that arise in society and reflect the attitude of the state towards its citizens and their groups, citizens towards the existing state power, as well as the relationship between political groups(parties) and political mass movements. Thus, the political sphere of society reflects the relationship between people and social groups, the emergence of which is determined by the state.
4. Spiritual sphere (spiritual and moral) - a system of relations between people, reflecting the spiritual and moral life of society, represented by such subsystems as culture, science, religion, morality, ideology, art. The significance of the spiritual sphere is determined by its priority function as a system of values of society, which, in turn, reflects the level of development of social consciousness and its intellectual and moral potential. It should be noted that an unambiguous division of the spheres of society is possible only within the framework of its theoretical analysis, however, in real life characterized by their close relationship, interdependence and intersection (which is reflected in the names, for example, socio-economic relations). That is why the most important task of social science is to achieve the integrity of scientific understanding and explanation of the laws of functioning and development of the social system as a whole.

Answer from dayana[guru]
Of course, the economic sphere is closely connected with the political and in no way with the spiritual. The social sphere is interconnected with all the rest. The spiritual sphere can be embodied only in society and not in politics and economics. I do not agree that society is a self-regulating system, I do not see this in practice. Without spirituality in people, no political decrees and no economic payments, there will be no continuity to the next generations, which is now observed. Betting on the development of the economy, we come to a change in the political sphere for the sake of consumption and profit, to the complete degradation of the social sphere, because society is not everyone individually, but the interaction of all ... and we are watching how people turn into a herd that consumes and degenerates ... And all because, contrary to centuries-old traditions, they put the economy above spirituality ... Like this...

Answer from Spring[guru]
Scientists distinguish four areas of public life.
1) Economic sphere: material production and relationships between people that arise in the process of production of material goods, exchange (in the markets (exchange)) distribution.
2) Social sphere: sections of the population, classes, nations, peoples, taken in their relationships and interactions with each other.
3) Political sphere: it includes politics, states, law, their relationship and functioning.
4) Spiritual sphere: forms and levels of social consciousness (morality, worldview, religion, education, science, art - everything that mankind has created and is called spiritual culture.)
5) Legal.
The division into spheres is conditional. All four spheres are closely interconnected and give us a complete picture of a particular society.

Throughout his life on the basis of direct contacts in the most different areas activities people form social bonds.
Social connection is a set of various kinds of dependencies between individuals, realized through social action; relations that unite people in social communities. social connection arises where and when there are subjects of communication (two or more people), the subject of communication (what relations, contacts arise about) and the mechanism for regulating relations (depending on the situation, this may be a tradition, a legal norm, etc.). P.).
Under social community is understood as a set of people united by common conditions of existence, regularly and steadily interacting with each other. The social community is characterized by relative integrity and can act as an independent subject of historical and social action.
AT modern society social communities are very diverse. They can be defined by the following indicators:
- quantitative composition - from a few people to millions;
- time of existence - from minutes and hours (bus passengers) to centuries (ethnic groups, nations);
- the quality and degree of relationships - from relatively stable social groups (family, stratum) to random formations (crowd).
And there are several types of communities.
Social community is distinguished by the following features:
- similarity of living conditions;
- commonality of needs;
- Team work;
- general culture; social identification.
Society as a system is distinguished by the close interconnection and interdependence of all its elements and subsystems. A complex system of social connections and relations permeates all spheres of society, which is determined by the nature of man as a social being. The main types of social connections are functional and causal. Cause-and-effect relationships are distinguished in the case when one of the phenomena brings the other to life, is its basis. Functional - can be traced in the interdependence of the goals and objectives carried out by the society and its individual elements. Causal and functional relationships are always implemented in unity. The first can be represented as a vertical, since one phenomenon precedes another in time. The latter are formed at the same moment in time.
To achieve its goals and objectives, society constructs a system of social relations - communications and forms the appropriate structures - social institutions.
Under public relations refers to the connections that arise between groups of people and within them in the process of the life of society. In accordance with the division of society into subsystems, there are economic, social, political and spiritual public relations. For example, relations in the sphere of distribution of material goods are economic; relations in the sphere of social management, decision-making on the coordination of public interests can be called political.
By their nature, these relations can be solidary (partnership), based on the coordination of the interests of the parties, or conflict (competitive), when the interests of the participants are opposite. In addition, relationships differ in terms of the level of interaction: they can be interpersonal, intergroup, international. The nature of social ties and public relations is changing in the process of development of society. At the same time, a number of their elements remain always unchanged.
In the structure of any relationship, one can distinguish:
- participants (subjects);
- significant object for them;
- needs (subject-object relations);
- interests (subject-subject relations);
- values (relationships between the ideals of interacting subjects).
