Sociology - Theories
Functionalism
Sees society as a greater than a sum of its component parts
All component parts "function" together in an agreed way to produce something greater than all of them added together
"Parts" refers to objects, ideas, norms, structures, institutions, values, beliefs
Altering one function affects the whole
Other parts may adapt to compensate for any dysfunction
Strengths - "Positive" out look
Weaknesses - Tends to ignore social change, out of date/old fashioned, neglects to look at causes of social problems
Feminism
Argues that society should be studied from a "gender" base
Society is made up of gender roles
Humans are socialised into gender roles from birth
Focuses on the subordinate role of women
Subordinate: Lower in rank or position
Advocates equality for both genders
Biological differences are natural BUT gender differences are socially constructed
Women are socialised into weaker positions
Interactionism
Contrasts structural approaches
Emphasises the impact of "the individual"
Focuses on interpreting meanings which people give to social actions
The influences of society is denied but acknowledged as something which is changeable via action or perspective of an individual
Symbols are the foundations on which interactions are built
Interpretation of the symbol is important in order to understand the social behaviour
Conflict Theory
Sees society composed of opposing groups
Conflicting for share of (scarce) recsources
Dominant group emerges
Dominant group sets the agenda as it has POWER
Society is held together by coerced/control/constraint inforced by dominant groups
