does anyone do sociology?
writing a assignment about the 3 theories:

-Conflict Theory
-Structural Functionalism
-Critical Theory (social constructionism)

and then looking to relate them to sport, and how they effect todays society. the first two i have done, marxism etc, but i am struggling on the critical theory. failing to find much information etc etc and gain exactly what it is? can anyone help?
thanks ! x
