1. Summary
This article explains conflict theory and the basic terms and assumptions needed to understand conflict theory.
Conflict theory emphasizes the conflictual role of society. In the late 1950s and 1960s, scholars such as Dahrendorf, David Lockwood, John Rex and Lewis Coser explained the importance of conflict in social life. Conflict theory is the theory that society is composed of individuals and groups, and that they are in conflict between competition.
Such conflicts can be found in life today. For example, in a stratified society, wealth and power inequality, or crime ...
2. intersting things
I thought Marx was only famous for the conflict theory, but it was interesting that many other scholars also studied conflict theory.
It was also interesting to use the theory of conflicts to interpret the phenomenon of modern society.
In view of the inequality of power or the distribution of goods, these situations can be fully explained by conflict theory.
The most interesting thing was the punishment of crime. It was an interesting interpretation that the punishment of the lower classes by the law makes them feel helpless and that they maintain their power in this way.
