Functionalism is inappropriate for the analysis of Caribbean society?

the functionalist theory can be applied to Caribbean society, but to a certain extent. the theory has both its merits and demerits in its analysis to contemporary Caribbean society. the strengths of the theory in relation to the Caribbean would be: social order, ( what would happen if Caribbean societies didn't have order? nominate, lawlessness, instability,) equilibrium ( societies change and when changes occur the social structure becomes unstable therefore we need to put measures in place to ensure that there is equilibrium) value consensus ( members of a society must have shared beliefs and values if society is to function properly.) inadequacies: Caribbean societies are multicultural ( cultural diversity different ethnic groups, races languages) theory is euro centric ( European societies are different, the changes that occurred within the Caribbean example slavery is not an indicator of European society. the social structure is different) synthesis & evaluation introduce another theory that can better understand Caribbean societies eg. the plural society thesis or even Marxism.

Does social classes go with social structure?

Social class is at least a component of social structure. That is, all society has some kind of structure to it, and class may or may not be one of the structures. Class is a sorting mechanism, connected to the way resources are shared and distirbuted- people of higher social class are born with more access to wealth and food and prestige than someone of a lower class. This makes the structure of society more stable and predictable over time. Marxist theorists would argue that class is ALWAYS a part of how society is organized, as there are always some individuals with more access to resources and prestige than others. Not everyone would agree with this, though. Some anthropologists have pointed out the important difference between power that is inherited from one generation to the next, and influence that is only created during your lifetime by your own deeds, and dies with you. If class is defined as something that gets passed down persistently through the generations, than it has not always existed; that was a specific idea that cropped up at a specific (though unknown) moment in history. The same is not true of social structure as a whole, which predates even the evolution of our species.

Was the social structure of ancient Egypt fair?

If you were a higher class person in ancient Egypt, yes, you would find it fair and perfect and you would probably love the social structure because you are at the top. But if you were a lower class family, you would probably not find the social structure fair at all because you are not getting enough money or food on your table so you wouldn't find the social structure fair at all. So your answer would depend on who you are asking. To answer this question, I would include opinions and perspectives of all classes in Egypt and all people that are a part of the social structure.

How is the social structure described through a story or book character?

This varies greatly by book and character, but social structure can be found in any story. They say "you write what you know". This is very true in this scenario , every author either accidentally or on purpose will present social structure as it was, as it is, or how they would like it to be.
