Discuss the relevance of sociological concepts

Discuss relevance of sociological concepts: Think about all of the different topics you’ve read and written about this term. How are they at play in this issue. In this topic, you’ll need to address stratification, micro factors, AND macro factors. You do not, however need to address EVERY type of stratification, EVERY micro factor, or EVERY macro factor.
How is stratification related to your topic? You can describe the relevance of gender, class, and/or racial stratification. You can focus on one of these in greater depth, or describe how two or all of them are related.
How are micro factors related to stratification? You can describe the relevance of family, religion, and/or culture. Again, you can focus on one in greater depth, or multiple of these ideas.
How are macro factors related? This would include economic systems, political systems, systems of deviance, and systems of crime.

Explaining how a major theoretical perspective applies: Think about functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism. Decide which one can be used to describe your topic most accurately.
Which theory are you focusing on? Why?
Make specific connections between the theory and your topic. For example, if you’re writing about conflict theory, what are the different groups who are at odds with one another? If you’re writing about functionalism, what is the social function that is being fulfilled?
What might be the problem with this theory? How might the other(s) account for it?
When you discuss the theories, cite the textbook and any other sources you rely on. There’s no need or expectation to use anything beyond the textbook.
