Origin era places a social theory in the period when it was actually first developed. Wikipedia records that Durkheim, one of structural functionalism's major proponents, published his first major sociological work in "1893," anchoring the theory's early development squarely in the late 19th century. Browsing by origin era traces how social theories have built on each other over time.

The field of sociology itself is a relatively new discipline and so, by extension, is the field of sociological theory. Both date back to the 18th and 19th centuries, periods of drastic social change, where societies would begin to see, for example, the emergence of industrialization, urbanization, democracy, and early capitalism.
