With the growth of dynamic density and resulting division of labor in society, collective consciousness is weakened severely and people no longer have a unified sense of morality . ( Muller, 1994 ) Everyone is no longer affected by or connected to every deviant action that takes place in society in organic solidarity, so the call for severity no longer exists.

As social solidarity cannot be directly quantified, Durkheim indirectly studies solidarity by " classify [ ing ] the different types of law to find . . . the different types of social solidarity which correspond to it . " and civil laws as promoting organic solidarity, a society in which individuals engage in different kinds of work that benefit society and other individuals.

Equilibrium is established without any trouble and production regulates itself . " Durkheim contrasted the condition of anomie as being the result of a malfunction of organic solidarity during the transition from mechanical solidarity : But on the contrary, if some opaque environment is interposed . . . relations [ are ] rare, are not repeated enough . . . are too intermittent.

Dietrich Rueschemeyer argues from an economics perspective that competition in production, which is the basis for a free market system, does not have the same consequences as Darwinian competition . ( Rueschemeyer, 1982 ) To him, it follows logically that increased demand due to increased population density, for a product such as corn in an agrarian society, would improve rather than diminish the producers'chances of survival . ( Rueschemeyer, 1982 ) Hence, it does not follow logically that dynamic density would cause the transition from mechanical to organic solidarity.
