the whole of society/the whole society

[joham]

How can we encourage the whole of society/the whole society to be involved?

Society goes without an article, but how about the whole of society/the whole society ? Do both work fine?

Thank you in advance.

In what sense are you using society​?

[joham]

1
[uncountable] people in general living together in organized communities, with laws and traditions controlling the way that they behave towards one another

Society has to be prepared to support its elderly people.

Use "the whole of society..." Or, even more likely, "society as a whole..."
