Paper Summary:

This paper discusses how sociology may be seen as an attempt to understand the way people do what they do in society. However, not everyone approaches this attempt in the same way. In fact, people have different ways of looking at the matter, or theoretical perspectives. Currently, there are three major theoretical perspectives, namely the functionalist perspective, the conflict perspective, and the interactionist perspective. This paper presents an explanation of the functionalist perspective.
