Compare and contrast conflict theory with structural functionalism. pay special attention to the way each theory treats the origin of social change.

Conflict theory focuses on inequalities in society and competition for resources. Structural functionalism focuses on the organizational components of society, which are given more primacy than individual actors.

Explanation:

For conflict theory, society is driven by competition and it is important to pay attention to the distribution of resources and the different power dynamics between different groups. Social change comes about because there are inherent inequalities in society and people push for more resources. Marx and Marxist analysis are considered the quintessential example of conflict theory.

In structural functionalism, society is considered an integrated entity where different components like kinship, marriage, division of labor, each have their functions that are integral to the overall whole of society. Change in one component will lead to change (and sometimes imbalance) in another.  The tendency is to achieve balance like a biological organism would, seeking pattern maintenance. Radcliffe Brown and Talcott Parsons are examples of social scientists who used a structural-functionalist approach.
