Explanation:

The functional perspective, which is also called functionalism is one of the major theoretical perspectives in sociology. It explains how social order is possible or how society remains relatively stable. This theory posits that a society is more than the sum of its part; rather each aspect of it works for the stability of the whole. This perspective Is based largely on the works of Hebert Spencer, Emile Durkheim, Robert Merton and Talcott Parsons. The theory seems to suggest that gender inequalities exist as a better way to create a division of labor.

An example is seen when a government provides education for the children of the family, who in turn pay taxes on which the state depends to keep itself running. In this approach, societies are thought to function like organisms, where various social institutions work together like organs to maintain the society.
