Peer pressure is conformed by people because they always don't make the right decisions. They also might feel left out or accused of not being able to do what their friends are doing. Peer pressure is common and devastating among teenagers and sometimes adults.

People conform to peer pressure because as imperfect humans we don't always make the right decisions so people conform to peer pressure because they may feel left out or accused of not doing what others are doing. Impact? well peer pressure is common and devastating so its like a burned scar emotionally. Me? No due to my age I haven't been in that type of situation but soon I will and I hope I don't give in to pressure.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

<h3>The comparison and contrast of Davis and Moore’s functionalist perspective of social stratification with Mosca’s conflict perspective of social stratification lies on the concept of social position and power.</h3>

Explanation:

Davis and Moore's functionalist perspective of social stratification and Mosca’s conflict perspective of social stratification all emphasize on the presence of a power structure in a society which directly corresponds to the  position of an individual.  They all believed that society operates according to the social needs and that every individual performs their tasks accordingly.

The line of distinction between Davis and Moore's functionalist perspective and Mosca’s conflict perspective lies in the nature of men. Mosca believes that man is evil and dominating by nature and that compels him/her to misuse his position. He brings out the authority and power of the ruling class as an example to this argument. He argues that people in good position will eventually become more powerful as men are ambitious and selfish. They will gradually exploit people from lower position and use their power for their own personal gains.

While on the other hand, Davis and Moore argue that the greater the role of an individual is, the greater should be the reward. They illustrate the idea that people with bigger and greater roles should be given more importance because of their greater contributions to the society. Their perspective of social stratification emphasize that not everyone can perform the exclusive task of the doctors, therefore those who could perform such complicated tasks should be paid and rewarded more. Davis and Moore do not consider misuse of position and power by people of great influence.

In my opinion, Davis and Moore’s functionalist perspective of social stratification is more applicable and realistic. The fact that those who worked hard deserves a reward is a universal doctrine. These people spent a lot of effort and time before acquiring the position they are in today. Their effort and hard work should be rewarded greatly as they will contribute significantly to the society. Though, this perspective does not bring into account the chances of misuse of power and position, such elements can be controlled through efficient law and state control.
