We have an in-class assessment due this friday on social change. Basically its applying one theory of social change to a chosen country and about 1-3 aspects of change. I am currently in a state of panic due to the fact that i did a very stupid thing and barely studied. But enough about that for now. >_>

I looked up the theories in my textbook and it only explains three theories (evolutionary, functionalist and conflict) but i remember our old teacher mentioning something about the ever so popular Postmodern Theory. HOWEVER, its not stated anywhere in the book and i tried google but it still didn't really help. So, help anyone? :santa: (not sure why the santa smiley, but i thought it was cute :D)

do you HAVE to do postmodern theory? wouldnt it be wiser to just choose one out of the textbook to save you the panic? i mean, its an assessment..not a pip..and you're not stuck with it forever.

i on the other hand, am more or less obligated to do functionalist theory and japan. yay me.

any ideas?
