In the late thirties, two apprentices tortured and killed many cats against their master as a joke and their master. This case appears to be disgusted by contemporary audiences, but it is a joke to apprentices who killed the cat (Darton, "Labor Uprising: Big Cat Slaughter of Rue Sait - Severin", pp. 75 - 104). There are many ways to understand the historical background of the joke. According to AR, the two anthropological theories used to analyze this event are social structural theory.
The two concepts surrounding structural functionalism are social structure and social function. Social structure is a relatively stable pattern of social behavior. Social structure includes social arrangements such as various social classes (high, middle, low) or various governmental levels (federal, state, and local government). Functionalists also pay attention to social function. It is the influence of the social model on the function of society as a whole. Thinking about the social structure of religion - Functionalists will think that it exists for the benefit of society as a whole
Social structure is a relatively stable pattern of social behavior. You can think of social structure as the framework or framework of our daily life. We use social structure at home, community, workplace. Social structure is ritual, or widely accepted tradition. For example, it is common to shake hands when meeting someone or saying greetings. Also, it is usual to attend school at least in the 12th grade and we usually have lunch around noon. The social structure is what we expect from society. Social structure helps maintain social order and balance
Social structure in sociology, unique and stable institutional arrangement of human interactions, and everyday life in society. Social structure is often treated in the concept of social change, including changing social structure and the power of social organization. Research on social structure is trying to explain issues such as trends of integration and inequality. In the study of these phenomena, sociologists analyze organization, social category (such as age group) or ratio (such as crime and birth). This method is also called formal sociology, it does not directly include personal actions and interpersonal relationships. Therefore, research on social structure is not considered behavioral science, and analysis is too abstract at this level.
