Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The conflict/critical approach is concerned with power imbalances and struggles between different groups in society, and is therefore the best choice for examining the relationship between wealthy countries and transnational corporations that exploit poor countries. This approach focuses on how the global economic system benefits a few powerful actors at the expense of the majority, and how this leads to inequality and exploitation. The structural/functionalist approach, on the other hand, tends to see society as cohesive and stable, while the interactionist and ethnomethodological approaches look at the ways individuals interact and make sense of their social world, but are not as useful for analyzing large-scale social structures and power dynamics.
