There are many ideas on how social order works and what must be done for social order to be achieved. I would like to examine two popular conflict theories rational choice and Marxism. Rational choice theory is based upon utilitarianism where individuals try to maximize utility or benefits and minimize costs.

Rational choice theories explain that all actions are the result of individual choice. Rational choice theories also clarify that people choose their own behavior and should be held responsible for making those choices‚ as well as for the consequences of their choices.

Factors Affecting Rational Choice Most consumer behavior analyses and programs seek to dig out consumers’ needs and wants‚ which direct their purchasing and decision behaviors. Consumer behavior and choice are complex‚ inherently dynamic and potentially affected by a number of factors.

Cesare Lombroso suggests that the physiological traits such as the measurements of someone cheek bones‚ or their hairline. The positivism theory says its factors like poverty‚ subcultures or lower levels of education can predispose people to crime.
