Question

Sociology:

What is a social-conflict theorist looking for when studying the labor market?

A. Whether inequality exist
B. How people view themselves
C. How workers help society function
D. Whether the government own business

Answer 1

I would say A. They look for corruption.

Answer 2

Social-conflict theory refers to a Marxist approach which states that individuals and groups that exist within a society tend to interact with one another based on the conflicts that they experience with one another rather than through consensus.

Thus, when a social conflict theorist studies the labor market, he or she would be more inclined to find out (A) whether inequality exists.
