conflict perspective  

Definition(s)

  • The theoretical foundation of the conflict perspective is the philosophy of Karl Marx and its expression in various schools of intellectual thought that include conflict theory, critical theory, historical Marxism, Marxist feminism, socialist feminism, and radical feminism. At the center of Marx's analysis is an economic perspective of social life that conceptualizes people's ownership of and control over the products and processes of their labor as the origin of social organization (society).
