Answer: No, landlord is not liable

Explanation:

According to the situation described in the question, landlord did inform the tenants about the issue of balcony's railing that they are weak and unstable .He also mentioned that he will repair it soon.

If one of the tenant falls down before the repairing could take place then it is the fault of the tenant as they knew about the condition of railing and still stepped out or went near it , thus the misshapening took place.

Therefore, landlord cannot be held responsible for the accident because he warned the tenants about the railing as well as assured them that he will get it repaired.

Ronch [10]

Answer:

The branch of family sociologists that would likely be interested in these findings is  the theoretical sociologist which is a sociological theory with a set of ideas that provides an explanation for human society.  Theories are selective in terms of their priorities and perspectives and the data they define as significant.

The most important of these is the distinction between Structural and Social action theories.

Explanation:

A theoretical perspective is a set of assumptions about reality that inform the questions we ask and the kinds of answers we arrive at as a result. Often, sociologists use multiple theoretical perspectives simultaneously as they frame research questions, design and conduct research, and analyze their results.

Sociologists develop theories to explain social phenomena. A theory is a proposed relationship between two or more concepts. In other words, a theory is explanation for why or how a phenomenon occurs.

Sociology includes three major theoretical perspectives: the functionalist perspective, the conflict perspective, and the symbolic interactionist perspective (sometimes called the interactionist perspective, or simply the micro view).

The best theoretical perspective to use in sociology is functionalism because it emphasizes the contributions (functions) of each part of society. It includes micro theory or small/middle/large theories.

A theoretical definition is a proposed way of thinking about potentially related events. Theoretical definitions contain built-in theories; they cannot be simply reduced to describing a set of observations. A theoretical definition of a term can change, over time, based on the methods in the field that created it.
