Paper instructions:
The sociological perspective, in a basic level, includes three theoretical approaches; functional analysis, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism. (You are encouraged to use the textbook, class notes, supplementary readings, or any other scholarly work as references). Hence, employing the sociological perspective entails discussing each of these theories and how they apply to your topic of choice. (For example, how do functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism help us to understand presidential elections; immigration rates, or Facebook interaction)? Since each theory has its unique concepts and terminology, make sure to incorporate them in a precise, appropriate, and comprehensive manner. Keep in mind that this is a final exam and you want to demonstrate your knowledge of the sociological perspective. Therefore, the clear discussion of terms and concepts is of paramount relevance.
