Davis and moore worked from the functionalist perspective and are responsible for the widely accepted ‘davis-moore thesis’ that explains differential incomes and wealth accumulation as a process that is largely beneficial to society. the davis-moore thesis states: a. that economic hardship and skyrocketing inflation is the cause for all social stratification in the united states. b. that karl marx was correct and that stratification can only be solved by converting to a socialist government. c. that the more society values a particular profession, the more the people in that profession will make, and that more valued members of society (based on their ability to contribute to social stability) will earn more and accumulate greater wealth. d. that people constantly move up and down the social ladder, and this creates an unstable economy which will eventually collapse.
