Answer:

Conflict theories include viewpoints in psychology and sociology that emphasise a materialistic version of history, a conceptual methodology of study, a critical attitude towards current social structures, and a radical or, at least, reformist political programme.

On the other hand, In social science interactionism relates to the theoretical perspective derived from human communication by social structures. It's really the process by which individuals form society by context that occurs in relationships and are influenced by society.
