Question

Daniel Bell views postindustrial societies as consensual, because he believes that postindustrial societies are characterized by interest groups concerned with such national issues as health, education, and the environment working for the common good. Bell's view represents which sociological perspective?

B. Conflict perspective
C. Interactionist perspective
D. Feminist perspective

Answer 1

The answer is A. Functionalist perspective.

Step-by-step explanation:

Functionalism often compares society to the human body, in the sense that all its "organs" have different roles and interact with each other.
