Answer:

B. functionalist perspective

Explanation:

The functionalist perspective was implemented by the philosopher Emile Durkheim. For Durkheim society has to function as the biological organism, as a human organ: if it malfunctions, it collapses. Thus society functions as a living organism in which all organs must function perfectly. Thus, for this social organism to be egalitarian and cohesive, all citizens' rights must be guaranteed. If there is a source of social conflict, the whole system can be contaminated, just as an illness in some organ can cause contamination throughout the body.
