Multiple Choice
Which of the following statements best outlines the interrelationship between the feminist, functionalist and conflict perspectives?
A) the functionalist and conflict perspectives both focus on maintaining stability in society and consensus among members of the society, while the feminist perspective emphasizes the distribution of power and the allocation of resources among the members of a society.
B) the feminist perspective shares the conflict perspective's attention to inequality, going beyond its focus on social class to address the role of gender in creating and sustaining inequality. In this regard, feminist theory has little in common with the functionalist perspective which shares the conflict perspective's focus on analyzing large-scale, society-wide patterns of social behaviour.
C) the conflict perspective focuses on an analysis of social order, the functionalist perspective focuses on an analysis of social inequality, and the feminist perspective incorporates each of these themes into its perspective with an extended focus addressing the role of gender inequality.
D) both the feminist and functionalist perspectives generalize about everyday forms of social interaction in order to explain society as a whole, while the conflict perspective considers how the status quo is established and maintained, and who benefits and who suffers from the existing system.
