1) What holds the societies together?

2) What are the sources of conflict in a society?

3) How do societies change?

Micro theories on the other hand, focus on the individuals who make up the society unlike macro theory which looks at the society as a whole. Micro theories are small scale. Consider it a magnifying glass, when you look through it, you 'zoom' in to the society and see the individuals who have made up that particular society.

Symbolic interactionism is the sociological perspective which is most closely linked to microsociology.
