Abstract
"Structure and agency" are among the most important theoretical and fundamental issues in contemporary sociology. Each structure and agency have their own characteristics. The need to pay attention to these two elements in the explanation of social phenomena has led to the emergence of diverse views, each of which, through a different process, seeks to preserve the authenticity of one or both of them in a social theory. This paper uses the comparative method to explore the common and distinct elements of the three theories related to the problem of "structure and agency relationship". Three theories that want to consider the both. The theories discussed are the theory of "structuration" Giddens', the theory of "Morphogenesis" archer, and the theory of the "personality- collective –relationship authenticity" zahed. Meanwhile, Zahed's theory provides a more comprehensive explanation of the relationship between structure and agency. The result of the comparison between these theories is that the mechanism of communication between structure and agency, based on the religious references contained in Zahed's theory (as a Muslim sociologist), can show how the agency is to the structure of communication And how the structure is related to agency.
