When it comes to understanding families, how are structural functionalist and conflict theoretical perspectives different? Based on what you read in the chapter, contrast how the two theories might explain the breadwinner-homemaker family

Explanation:

The difference between these two perspectives is that Consensus Perspective projects an image of society as the collective expression of shared norms and values, while Conflict perspective is the view that opposition and conflict define a given society and are necessary for social evolution. In a breadwinner family both of these will be different.

For Consensus Perspective the breadwinner in the family would be the individual defined by society as normal, which would be the man while the woman watches over the house and kids. This is considered old-school mentality.

Conflict perspective on the other hand would oppose such societal norms and in this perspective the Woman would be the sole breadwinner of the family providing all the financial necessities that the family needs, while the Man takes care of the kids.
