Notes:I learned about the three types of sociological theories. Two of the are macro sociology. The first one is the conflict theory of Karl Marks which deals with social oppression and injustice that leads to social inequality. Then, there is is the functionalist theory of Emile Durkheim which deals with how parts of society serve to maintain stability. Then there is the micro sociology theory of George Herbert Mead which is referred to as symbolic interaction. It deals with interactions among people and how it shapes society.
