• B. investigate the root cause of malaise in a society.

Hint:

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Understand the key phrase "To be radical" means not just analysis or criticism, but the courage to dismantle and rebuild. Step 2: Focus on intended transformation The sentence suggests change — “break with the predominant… in order to…” - (a) is only about investigation. - (b) is about diagnosis. - (c) is narrow (economic focus only). - (d) covers the broader idea of actively reconstructing. Step 3: Logical fit Only (d) completes the meaning with active transformation — “re-construct the system” logically follows a break from old systems.
