What is Structural-Functionalism? Let the students read!!!
Structural-Functionalism – an approach
that sees society as a complex system
whose parts work together to promote
solidarity and stability. It looks for a
structure’s social function.
It interprets society as structure

with interrelated parts.
Structuralism – a method for analysing

phenomena that uncovers basic elements
that form structures.
Society – is seen as running effortlessly
like a fit life form, composed of many parts
concocted in large systems.
Societies are thought to functions
like organisms, with various Social
Institutions working together like
organs to achieve stability.
Interdependent Relationship
The Functionalists Perspectives

Functionalist Theory – Each aspect of
society depends on each contributes to the
overall stability and functioning of that
society.
The Functionalists Perspectives is based
largely on the works of Herbert Spencer,
Emile Durkheim, Talcott Parsons and
Robert Merton.
According to Functionalism, society is a
system of interconnected parts that work
together in harmony to maintain a state of
balance and social equilibrium for the
whole.
Functionalists use the terms

FUNCTIONAL and DYSFUNCTIONAL
to describe the effects of social elements on
society.
Social Function – the consequence of any

social pattern for the operation of a society
as a whole.
Social Dysfunction – any social pattern
that may disrupt the operation of society.
Sociologists have identified two types of

functions: a. MANIFEST; and b. LATENT
(Merton 1968)
Manifest Function – the recognized and

intended consequences of any social
pattern.
Latent Function – the unrecognized and
unintended consequences of any social
pattern.
