In response to Robin's video regarding functionalism:
Durkheim explains social facts existed before societies and will ensure past them. Such facts coerce us to behave in a given way, along social norms. The division of labour and specialisation creates dependancies within societies and groups.
Rapid development and social change may blur these clear divisions of labour, prompting 'anomie' or deviant behaviours from individuals in the society e.g. suicide. As Roopini notes, Durkheim suggests the use of education or institutions to connect people and maintain a shared social fabric / understanding of social norms.

·       If we have to think about a good thing, or advantage the modernization theory brought for development in Africa, what would it be?
