Federalists were in favor of a strong central government, and  favored strong fiscal policies that included paying off the  national debt, setting tariffs to make domestic iâ¦ndustries  stronger, and establishing a national bank.
Emile Durkheim developed theories of social structure that included functionalism, the division of labor, and anomie. These theories were founded on the concept of social facts, or societal norms, values, and structures. Functionalism is a concept with three integral elements.
The perspective was implicit in the original sociological positivism of Comte, but was theorized in full by Durkheim, again with respect to observable, structural laws. Functionalism also has an anthropological basis in the work of theorists such as Marcel Mauss, BronisÅaw Malinowski and Alfred Radcliffe-Brown.
