Answer: Functionalism

Explanation: Functionalism (Functionalists) view government and politics as the way to enforce norms and regulate conflict. Functionalists see active social change, just like the sit-in on Wall Street, as undesirable because it forces change and, as a result, undesirable things which can got to be compensated for. They also seek consensus and order in society.
