For this assignment, please write a short paper in which you discuss war from the three dominant theoretical perspectives mentioned in the recent course material. Often, the dominant theoretical paradigms are identified as structural functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism. In our textbook, the three paradigms identified are methodological individualism, interpretive understanding, and relational sociology. For your paper, please discuss how do the structural-functionalists, conflict theorists, and symbolic interactionists make sense of war? How might they address questions about why countries go to war or why people participate in war? Make sure to describe the core ideas of each paradigm and which theories they would offer to explain the phenomenon of war. Which theoretical approach is most persuasive to you and why? Write up answers in a 1-2 page paper. Submit your work at this link here when complete.
