Answer 1

The sociological perspective that Juan's thoughts come from is that of the conflict theory.

Option: (B)

Explanation:

• The social conflict theory given by Karl Marx puts emphasis on the inequality prevalent in society and clarifies how inequality itself is responsible for the conflict.
• The theory suggests that there is no end to this social conflict as the demand for resources that are already limited is going to keep on increasing as the population increases.
• If in case the society embraces the ideas of consensus and conformity, the degree or the intensity of the conflict would reduce considerably.
