The dominant mode of theorizing in the social disciplines, educational administration, and special education. Asserts that social reality is objective, inherently orderly, and rational, and thus that social and human problems are pathological.

In context: Skrtic advocates for the abandonment of functionalism as a method of analysis for both special and general education.
