Фрагмент работы

Functionalism focuses on what is good for the whole of society. Functionalists took a similar
way as biologists to explain this perspective. Social systems were dissected into their parts, or
institutions (family, education, economy, polity, and religion), and these parts were examined
to find out how they worked and their importance for the larger social system. The idea of the
functionalists was to create a science of society that could examine the parts of human social
systems and make them work for the improvement of all.
