Durkheim's three major contributions to sociology include the concept of social facts, which are external to the individual and have a coercive power over them; the importance of social solidarity in maintaining social order and cohesion; and the role of religion as a force in modern life, particularly in fostering collective consciousness and moral values. Option D includes all three of these contributions. Option B includes two of the contributions but not social solidarity, and options A and C both include economic productivity and globalization, which were not major focuses of Durkheim's work.
