Part I.
With my understanding of social stratification in America, I would have to say that I am more of a conflict theorist. Conflict theory suggests that competition and conflicts occurs very often in societies through social interactions. The studies of these developments are a good way to understand a society. I believe that there is no perfect society, someone will eventually have to gain and some will just have to lose--this is how the game goes. At times, conflicts will be created, it is just unavoidable.
