Answer:

functionalist.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the main theoretical viewpoints in sociology is the functionalist viewpoint also called functionalism which originates from the study of Emile Durkheim. He was particularly interested in how social order is possible or how remarkably stable society remains. According to this theory, every institution of society is mutually dependent and contributes to the stability of society and to its overall functioning.
