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.
