Each question should be answered in about thirty (30) words. (5 5 = 25 marks) : (5) (30) (5) (5 5 = 25 ) Read the following passage and answer the questions given below it : Although neo-functionalism may not be a developed theory. Alexander has outlined some of its basic orientations. . neo-functionalism operates with a descriptive model of society that sees society as composed of elements which, in interaction with one another, form a pattern. This pattern allows the system to be differentiated from its environment. Parts of the system are symbiotically connected , and their interaction is not determined by some overarching force. Thus, neo-functionalism rejects any monocausal determinism and is open-ended and pluralistic. Alexander argues that neo-functionalism devotes roughly equal attention to action and order. It thus avoids the tendency of structural functionalism to focus almost exclusively on the macro-level sources of order in social structures and culture and to give little attention to more micro-level action patterns. Neo-functionalism also purports to have a broad sense of action, including not only rational but also expressive action. neo-functionalism retains the structural-functional interest in integration, not as an accomplished fact but rather as a social possibility ! It recognizes that deviance and social control are realities within social systems. There is concern for equilibrium within neo-functionalism, but it is broader than the structural-functional concern, encompassing both moving and partial equilibrium. There is a disinclination to see social systems as characterized by static equilibrium. Equilibrium, broadly defined, is seen as a reference point for functional analysis but not as descriptive of the lives of individuals in actual social systems. . neo-functionalism accepts the traditional Parsonsian emphasis on personality, culture and social system. In addition to being vital to social structure, the interpenetration of these systems also produces tension that is an ongoing source of both change and control. Fifth neo-functionalism focuses on social change in the processes of differentiation within the social, cultural and personality systems. Thus, change is not productive of conformity and harmony but rather individuation and institutional strains . : , , : , J-0510 21 P.T.O. : : - :, - . , , , - , . , , , , : , 15. Why is monocausal determinism rejected in neo-functionalism ? ? _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 16. Why are macro-micro level sources linked in neo-functionalism ? - ? _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ J-0510 22 17. How has the concept of equilibrium been viewed in neo-functionalism ? ? _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 18. How has change been differently viewed in neo-functionalism ? ? _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 19.
