Answer:

Conflict theory

Explanation:

This type of theory would be ascribed to the theoretical paradigm of conflict theory. Conflict theory is a framework that states that tensions and conflicts are caused by the uneven, or unjust, distribution of resources in society. This would be the case in colonial Africa, as the colonists enjoyed the majority of resources. Conflict theory suggests that these conflicts are the main engine for social change.
