Social inequality and stratification are key concerns in sociology. Social inequality refers to the unequal distribution of recources and opportunities.
The studies of inequality explore:
- the nature of inequality
- How much inequality there is and who gets what.
- why some people get more than others.
Social class,gender,ethnicity and age are all sources of
Social stratification
Stratification describes the way society is structured in a herarchy of unequal layers.
Do you think that social inequality is inevitable, given that social stratification exists?
