A society is a self-perpetuating grouping of individuals occupying a particular territory, which may have its own distinctive culture and institutions. The term is most commonly used to describe human societies, although it may be used to describe animal societies. The term may refer to a particular people, such as the Nuer, or to a nation state, such as Austria. In political science, the term is often used to mean the totality of human relationships, generally in contrast to the State, i.e., the apparatus of rule or government within a territory.\n\n    "I mean by it [State] that summation of privileges and dominating positions which are brought into being by extra-economic power... I mean by Society, the totality of concepts of all purely natural relations and institutions between man and man..." - Franz Oppenheimer, The State.[1]\n\nThe social sciences generally use the term society to mean a group of people that form a semi-closed social system, in which most interactions are with other individuals belonging to the group. More abstractly, a society is defined as a network of relationships between social entities. A society is also sometimes defined as an interdependent community, but the sociologist Tonnies sought to draw a contrast between society and community. An important feature of society is social structure, aspects of which include roles and social ranking.

A capitalistic society retains ownership in private hands.  Even the economic planning in a capitalistic society is mostly a non-governmental function.  The courts exist to achieve justice.  The fundamental value persued by government is FREEDOM.\n\nIn a communistic society, there is no private property, the economy is centrally planned, and the courts exist to serve a social function rather than justice.  The fundamental value persued by government is supposed to be EQUALITY but normally is actually RESENTMENT against anyone more successful than the norm.

I'm not sure what you mean by elements, but Economics is based on the idea of supply and demand.  People have insatiable wants and desires, and there are limited resources available to satisfy them so people are forced to make decisions (which is the study of Economics).

Socialism is a general term for a system of collective or government ownership and management of the means of production and distribution of goods. Because of the collective nature of socialism, it is different from the doctrine of the sanctity of private property that characterizes capitalism. Where capitalism stresses competition and profit, socialism calls for cooperation and social service.

sociology is the study of society and its culture. As a result, all social policy will have a baring on sociology but will often be based on the sociological theory favoured by the government of the day (we seem to have a government obsessed by Hayek's neo liberallism at the moment.)

"Community-based ecconomics" is class-economics. You move into a neighborhood you can afford and your associates earn approximately the same as you do.\n\nCapitalism is when the elite members of a society control all the money and futures of companies and products that their wisdom persuades them to invest in.\n\nSocialism is best left to be enjoyed by the elderly and frail whom can not contribute to their society and can be sustained by a modest monthly stipend to pay for rents and a quota of food.

Basically, social policy is policy developed by governmental agencies which helps regulate health and well-being of humans in a given societal structure (like, for example, minimum liability insurance required on vehicles).  The definitions are more specific based on the agency that creates the policy.  For example, politics may create social policy to deal with the issue of abortion.  See the definitions below from Wikipedia:\n\n"Social policy relates to guidelines for the changing, maintenance or creation of living conditions that are conducive to human welfare. Thus social policy is that part of public policy that has to do with social issues such as public access to social programs. In an academic environment, social policy refers to the study of the welfare state and the range of responses to social need.\n\nIn United States politics, social policies are those which regulate and govern human behavior in areas such as sexuality and general morality."\n\nSee the following:
