Abstract: Sociology is a science of crisis. It begins as an outcome of the Great Transformation of feudal-agricultural society into capitalist industrial society. Sociological diagnoses are the means by which sociology tries to discover and explain the order of modern society and the driving forces of its change. Thus, crisis and critique come into the focus of sociology as, by understanding crises, sociology tries to produce a critique that would direct society towards reasonable development. This is undoubtedly a complicated and complex task; that is why this article is focused on the logic and problems of sociological diagnosis.
