Sociologists have categorized societies into six main types based on their economic structures: hunting and gathering societies which rely on hunting wild animals and gathering plants; pastoral societies whose economies center around herding livestock; horticultural societies focused on cultivating plants; agricultural societies based on growing crops; industrial societies driven by technology and mass production; and post-industrial societies where the service sector generates more wealth than manufacturing. Each society type has its own unique characteristics related to its dominant economic activities.

Kinds of Society Sociologists have classified the different types of societies into six categories, each of which possess their own unique characteristics: Hunting and gathering societies. Pastoral societies. Horticultural societies. Agricultural societies. Industrial societies. Post-industrial societies.
Societies that rely primarily or exclusively on hunting wild animals, fishing, and gathering wild fruits, berries, nuts, and vegetables to support their diet.
In sociology, the post- industrial society is the stage of society's development when the service sector generates more wealth than the manufacturing sector of the economy.
A pastoral society is a social group of pastoralists, whose way of life is based on pastoralism, and is typically nomadic. Daily life is centered upon the tending of herds or flocks.
A horticultural society is an organization devoted to the study and culture of cultivated plants. Such organizations may be local, regional, national, or international. Some have a more general focus, whereas others are devoted to a particular kind or group of plants. They are also clustered.
An agrarian society (or agricultural society) is any society whose economy is based on producing and maintaining crops and farmland.
In sociology, industrial society refers to a society driven by the use of technology to enable mass production, supporting a large population with a high capacity for division of labour.
