Answer 1

is this your homework? anyway, ill give you the basics and you answer on your own:-)

structural functionalism (Durkheim) - there is one world and it should be studied empirically, deterministically, objectively.

symbolic interactionism (Weber) - everyone has a perceived world and should be studied differently.
