Abstract

The researcher reviewed the works of some major micro-theorists and deduced solutions to the problem. The researcher deduced one of the solutions from the works of Randall Collins which is named aggregation model. Similarly, another model was deduced from the works of James Coleman called coordination model. These models show a movement from micro-observations made or data collected to the macro level where generalisations are made or conclusions are drawn. The two models have depicted a scale of transition from micro (individual members of the society) to macro-level which is a large-scale structure of the society. The paper concludes that either of the two models presented above can solve the micro-macro problem in sociology and social theory in general. Keywords: Aggregation model, coordination model, micro, macro.
