Question
What is social inequality?
✓
Answer
The patterns of unequal access to resources are called social inequality:
Social inequality is not the consequence of natural destructiveness and variations between people. These are produced by the society.
Some people in the society are at a hunger level in terms of money, property education, knowledge, health and honour while others at the lowest level, it is called social inequality.
It may get manifested in three forms of resources i.e., economic capital money, cultural capital states and social capital contacts.
These three forms of capital do overlap.
