Discuss the differences between the three major sociological theoretical approaches: structural functional, social-conflict and symbolic interaction theories.

There is a major difference in three sociological theoretical approaches: structural functional, social-conflict and symbolic interaction theories which explain how society influences people.

Explanation:

Symbolic interaction theory guides sociologists to take symbols and what these symbols mean in everyday life. It also means how people cooperate with each other. They give a thought that how people act, and what meanings they give to their own actions and how they perceive others. In this theory, the focus is on face to face interaction  

According to the functionalist perspective, each part of the society is interdependent. Society functions as a whole and the members of the society work together and agree to each other.  

The conflict perspective focuses on how elite group of the society controls the poor or the weak section. According to this theory, society keeps changing. Unequal groups have opposing values and agendas and they keep competing against each other. All this leads to changing nature of  the society.
