Functionalists believe that education enables social ascent and advancement of society in a context of inequality in education in the United States.

Functionalism is a theoretical current of sociology that originated in the decade of the 30s of the 20th century. This stream focuses on:

  • Consider the free press as a banner and example of freedom.
  • The free press is the way to transact ideas.
  • In society, everyone has the right to make mistakes, the error has to be accommodated since it allows us to clarify the truths.
  • The individual can always improve through education and access to information.
  • The more information there is, the greater the economic, social and political improvement of society.

According to the above, it can be inferred that the conception of functionalists in an unequal society, education allows social ascent and advancement of society.

Do you think countries should spend money in building arms and ammunitions or invest in the development of infrastructure? Comme
olganol [36]

The greatest priority in every State is security. As a matter of fact, a nation without a powerful military can be an attractive target for terrorists.  However, countries present different realities and what may seem the best investiment for one country might not be the right alternative for another. It all depends on the situation and the level of development of each nation-state. If we take into consideration that the money ($11 billion) the U.S spent in Iraq, that was labeled as "wasted" later on, could have paid over 220,000 teachers' salaries, the answer to this question becomes very obvious. In my opinion, having a balance between both investments is vital. But, if I had to choose, I'd choose to invest in infrastructure because they're essential to a country's economy and prosperity; a country that is economically developed and prosper will manage its military successfully.

How did the emancipation proclamation open the door for for black soldiers
TiliK225 [7]
<span>In the Summer of 1862, Lincoln realized that emancipation was required for political and military necessity. Many different factors led to this reason, with lack of military success, hope that emancipated slaves might help meet the army’s growing manpower needs, changing northern public opinion and the calculation that making slavery a target of war effort would counteract sentiment in Britain for recognition of the Confederacy.  So at the advice of Secretary of State William H. Seward Lincoln waited until a Union victory to announce it and five days after McClellan's army forced Lee to retreat at Battle of Antietam. Lincoln issued the Preliminary Emancipation Proclamation which warned the South if it did not surrender by the end of 1862 he would abolish slavery. The reaction in the North was not good as they would lose a lot of their legislature position and the Democratic Party used this as opposition propaganda. On January 1, 1863, Lincoln went to his study to sign the Emancipation Proclamation. It did not liberate all slaves and only a few. The document had exempted areas under Union control (where the war in effect, had already ended) and did not apply to loyal border slave states. In addition parts of the Confederacy occupied by Union soldiers were also exempt such as Tennessee, and parts of Virginia and Louisiana. But the remaining majority of the South’s slaves more than 3 million men, women and children were declared free but since most of these slaves were still behind Confederate lines they would need to wait until Union liberation. But it encouraged south slaves to run toward free states and ended any possible negotiation with the Confederacy. It would cause a large number of black slaves to join the Unions side of the war. This document changed the course of the Civil War which was started to preserve the prewar Union now was meant to create a new definition of freedom. A new system of labor, politics and race relations would have to replace the shattered institutions of slavery.
