In attempting to develop theories about human society, sociologists face a wide range of choices. What issues

should they choose to study? What facts should they link together to form theories? Question such as this is not

answered in a haphazard fashion; rather, theory building is guided by a general framework that sociologists call a

theoretical paradigm. Following the ideas of George Ritzer (1983) a theoretical paradigm is a fundamental image of

society that suggests what Questions should be asked and how answers produced by research should be interpreted

Although all sociologists make use of one general perspective, they do not all base their work on the same

image of society. Some sociologists emphasize the fact that societies often remain remarkably stable over time; others

focus on social change. Similarly, while some direct attention to ways in which people are united through their

common membership in a single society, others emphasize how society divides people according to sex, race, or social

class. Moreover, while some sociologists define their goal as explaining the operation of society as it exists, others

attempt to encourage what they consider to be desirable social change. Finally, while some sociologists attempt to

address the operation of society as a whole, others find the most interesting questions in the patterns of individual

interaction within specific situations.In short all sociologists do not agree about what the

most interesting or useful questions are. Even when they do agree on the questions, they often disagree on the 374

answers. This does not mean, however, that sociological theory is utter chaos, because sociologists tend to organize

their work by using one or more of three major theoretical paradigms.
