The conflict perspective on social structure is a concept that is relevant to this article. Although Dale simply analyzes Ritzer’s writings about the negative effects of McDonaldization, the article questions the benefits that this effect has on society. Rather than viewing the growing use of control and efficiency in establishments as positive, Dale illustrates through Ritzers work that this process may not truly be effective in a learning environment. Just as the conflict perspective proposes that not all of society may benefit from the way it is structured, Dale inquires if the future generations of society may even be hindered by the evolving school system. Rather than learning in a natural way, students may not be learning effectively in this more efficient and systematic way of learning. Although a super-efficient and calculated system may work well in the corporate world for turning a profit, McDonaldization may not be effective in educating developing students.
