Structural Functionalism Parsons divides the social system into four subsystems; community‚ fiduciary‚ polity and economy. These action systems are intended to address the functional requirements that must be met by society. Each of these subsystems are capable of evolving in order to meet the current needs of society. At its core‚ Parsons sought to address the issues of adaption (economy)‚ goal attainment (polity)‚ integration (community) and pattern maintenance (fiduciary). These concepts

Structural Functionalism & Conflict Theory Karl Marx and Max Weber were the first conflict theorists in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Following Marx and Weber were three mid-20th century conflict theorists: Lewis Coser‚ Ralf Dahrendorf‚ and Randall Collins. Coser draws his theoretical ideas from Simmel. Like Simmel‚ Coser maintains that conflict is healthy for society. In contrast‚ Dahrendorf combines theoretical ideas from Marx and Weber. Dahrendorf sees power as the main feature in all
