Social Change Theory

The conflict theory is a possible theory that can be used for my social change topic. With the conflict theory, the framework can help better analyze the issues so that the movement can possibly be readdressed towards a better direction. The conflict theory views society as changing due to scarce resources. My topic discusses the lack of resources of psychiatrists, thus forcing mental health patients onto their primary care doctors, thus causing change in where society receives their psychiatric medication. The overwhelming percentage of primary care doctors, who are not adequately qualified to understand psychiatric illnesses, medications, and treatment. One limitation of this theory is that it explains social instability better than it can explain social instability.
