                                                             March.20th.     jung yeong hyuk (정영혁)

In this week the lecture 'Invitation to sociology' we learned about some Sociological Perspective

ex: conflict theory, funtional theory, symbolic interaction etc..

this week's lecture was easy to understand. because when I was highschool student.

I studied social culture. in social culture class I study hard about the Sociological Perspective.

1.Conflict theory

(Karl Heinrich Marx

the starting point of conflict theory)

Conflict theory is fundamentally made to opposit of functional theory.

In this perspective social conflict always exist. because of social contradiction

two class always opposing and one class win and another class collapse.

this phenomenon always repeat so the social advance to  better condition.

2.functional theory

 (functional theory think that social like a gear)

In this theory's perspective. social like as a organism.  they influence each others.

functional theory emphasize social stability and equilibrium.

So the theory come under criticism that they keep the upper class's profit.

In the end.

two theory has right portion and weak point. conflict and functional theory compementary thing.

 we must use many sociological theory selectively and wisely.
