Summary/Abstract: In this paper we will try to analyse terms like family and society and try to bond historical facts from science aspect. Family has been through a lot of change which gave her different stamp, each on its own way. Same situation was with society, which from historical point of view gave different forms. When it comes to society, it has been recognized as widest, most complex and basic human community which becomes and evolves in certain historical period. On the other side, family represent historical category and cell of society or better said, it has been marked as basic, biological and educational group. Under different economical, cultural, political, global, sociological and other influences, society becomes complex and differential and social relations reflect family as a society in whole. Best description of society and family at general made Herbert Spencer (not only author) when he said that human is made of organs (without which he can not live) society is made of institutions, one of them being family. From all the changes in the world none is more important than the one in our privacy- in family environment. Global understanding of family is at the scene, family relations, bonds which exists in different groups in social society. Many questions are being made on this things- too much for us to understand in such a short paper. That being said we will try to answer questions that are most common and of greater issue. In the end we can make a conclusion that traditional family, ahead of all modernities and as her being like that gives us a chance that family and society, firstly as historical appearances, view from different angle (scientific and theoretical above all), trying to explain where is it leading it today.
