Autorenporträt

Charles Abram Ellwood was a sociologist known for contributions to the development of sociology as an academic discipline in the United States. Born on 20 January 1873, he became a prominent professor at the University of Missouri-Columbia and later at Duke University, where he influenced generations of students. His work focused on the role of social institutions in shaping human behavior and addressing modern social issues. Ellwood emphasized the importance of understanding social organization, the evolution of societal structures, and the interconnections between sociology and fields like economics, politics, and ethics. His academic writings explored how social values are transmitted and how institutions like the family contribute to social stability. Throughout his career, Ellwood advocated for the application of sociological theory to solve practical problems, including poverty, crime, and immigration challenges. He remained active in the academic community until his passing on 25 September 1946 in Durham, North Carolina. His intellectual development and dedication to social science left a lasting legacy in the field of sociology.
