Write a paper which identifies one influential theorist that best aligns with your personal view of sociology. Describe the theory and provide evidence supporting your thesis (three reasons for choosing your theorist).
The paper must be three to four pages in length (excluding the cover and reference pages) and formatted according to APA style. You must use at least two scholarly resources (at least one of which can be found in the Ashford Online Library) other than the textbook to support your claims and subclaims. Cite your resources in text and on the reference page.
