The document discusses four sociological theories: functionalist theory, conflict theory, consensus theory, and structural functionalism. Functionalist theory focuses on how universal education serves the needs of society. Conflict theory focuses on how education maintains power structures and creates a docile workforce for capitalism. Consensus theory focuses on norms and values as fundamental to society and views social change as slow and orderly. Structural functionalism emphasizes the dominance of some social groups over others and sees social change as rapid and disorderly.
