Davis and Moore (1945): The Davis-Moore Hypothesis for social stratification seeing "functional necessity" where the highest incomes were given to the hardest jobs, as inequality allowed social stability.

Robert Merton (1910-2003): Theory of deviance; Made distinctions between manifest and latent functions, as latent functions had unrecognized and unintended consequences. Believed in 5 situations facing people: conformity, innovation, ritualism, retreatism, and rebellion.

The founders of the theory are  Ralph Linton (sociology) and George Herbert Mead (social psychology). David Heise in the 1970s sought to understand individuals and groups in the context of their culture by seeing how people regulate their social identities through emotions and meanings, as the person strives to maintain a stable sense of self and identity. Identity theory allows for people to maintain their sense of identity and self-concept through their participation in various social groups as they develop social interactions, roles and relationships.  ]]> 2023-06-08 19:28:25 UTC https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618578128 cdong4389 https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618579198 Symbolic interaction theory seeks to understand the complexity of people's relationship with their society by their intra and interpersonal communication. ]]> 2023-06-08 19:30:31 UTC https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618579198 cdong4389 https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618583375 Conflict sociology has been significant in providing insight on the existence and perpetuation of social inequality, such as economic class, race, gender and sexuality while each intersects to create complex systems of oppression and power dynamics. In exploring the dominant groups exercising various forms of control in power, resources, institutions and ideologies, conflict sociology highlights the conflict and struggle in driving social change. It recognizes the reoccurring tensions and conflicts between the completing groups. Conflict sociology has seens the alienation and social disconnection caused by the division of labor, exploitation and commodification of social relationships leading to powerlessness and isolation as anomie (normlessness and moral confusion) occurs when people disconnect their personal morals from societal expectations. ]]> 2023-06-08 19:39:35 UTC https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618583375 cdong4389 https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618583979 2023-06-08 19:41:02 UTC https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618583979 cdong4389 https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618585158 2023-06-08 19:43:20 UTC https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618585158 cdong4389 https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618585774 2023-06-08 19:44:19 UTC https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618585774 cdong4389 https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618586585 2023-06-08 19:46:00 UTC https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618586585 cdong4389 https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618586910 2023-06-08 19:46:49 UTC https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618586910 cdong4389 https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618587630 2023-06-08 19:48:43 UTC https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618587630 cdong4389 https://padlet.com/reginarhymes/cag2fm2vql81y2p4/wish/2618969200 Emile Durkheim (father of Functionalism): 1858-1917
