CRITIQUE of functionalism 0.0 / 5 ?

Only focus on monitary crimes E.g not vandalism Assumes a value consensus Not everybody wants material sucess Ignores non-utilitarian crime (no finnancial gain) Ignores Faiths E.g Buddists are not materialistic Dosen't explain why some are innovators and some are retreatists etc... Law represents everyone? NO, represents only certain groups 1 of 1
