FUNCTIONALISM
  1. Modernist Theory.
    1. Modernism is a philosophical movement that, along with cultural trends and changes, arose from wide-scale and far-reaching transformations in Western society during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
      1. Emile Durkeim.
        1. George Herbert Mead.
        2. Industrialisation.
          1. British Industrialisation in the Eighteenth and Early Nineteenth Century. During the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries the growth of manufacturing industry transformed some regions of England, Wales and Scotland, economically, socially and culturally. Many other areas, however, were hardly touched.
          2. Social Order.
            1. The term social order can be used in two senses. In the first sense, it refers to a particular set or system of linked social structures, institutions, relations, customs, values and practices, which conserve, maintain and enforce certain patterns of relating and behaving.
            2. Generalise.
              1. Macro Approach.
                1. Large scale.
                  1. A positive theory to ease confusion due to social change after industrialisation.
                    1. First every sociology theory.
                2. Structural Theory.
                  1. Structural functionalism, or simply functionalism, is a framework for building theory that sees society as a complex system whose parts work together to promote solidarity and stability.
                    1. Society shapes the individual.
                    2. Value Consensus.
                      1. Functionalists believe that without collective conscience/ shared values and beliefs, achieving social order is impossible and social order is crucial for the well-being of society. They believe that value consensus forms the basic integrating principle in society.
                      2. Specialised Division Of Labour.
                        1. Every individual is filtered in status that suits their ability.
                          1. We have no power/ we adapt to the roles.
