1. What evidence can you find in everyday life to support Weber’s
prediction? How has bureaucracy constrained your abilities to act—or to
persuade others to take action? How have bureaucracies constrained your
creativity or prevented you from making your own decisions? (You might
draw examples from the legal system, the health care system, the education
system, the political system, the military, organized religion, or any
number of bureaucratic organizations. Even fast-food restaurants are
bureaucracies that limit individual choice!)

Final Assessment Topic

How do Marx, Durkheim, Weber, and Parsons view the social world? Which
theorist’s view comes closest to your own view of modern society?

While all four theorists sought to explain the nature of social life and
the workings of society, each one had a distinctive view of the social
world. Each theorist focused on particular aspects of society according to
his particular concerns about changes in society, about social order,
and/or about the future. Such concerns led these men to different analyses
of social phenomena as well as to different conclusions about modern
society.

A fully developed answer to this question will include:

* Identification of the fundamental concerns or interests of each of
the four theorists
* Detailed descriptions of how each theorist explained society with
respect to his particular concerns
* Explanation of any predictions or concerns about the future that
emerge from each theorists analysis of society
* Discussion of which theorist’s view of society is most like your
own, including illustrations of the relevance of this view to
present-day society
