Sociology
Dahrendorf, Rex, and Habermas focused their attention on:
social solidarity and cohesion
the interpretive understanding of action
women’s experiences and gendered knowledge
power, domination, and conflict
power, domination, and conflict
Conflict theories developed in the second half of the twentieth century in criticism of Structural-Functionalism, which was said to have overemphasized co-operation and cohesion. By contrast, these theorists argued that society was based on power divisions, inequality, domination, and conflict. Dahrendorf looked at the distribution of authority within organizations, Rex explained how more powerful groups were able to impose their views on others as a dominant ideology, and Habermas developed a critical theory of how knowledge was related to different human interests. 56-59
