1. Summary
Stratification causes inequality. Stratified three-dimensional (power, wealth, prestige). The origins of inequality appeared in the horticulture / livestock community. While the other was exchanged. Inequality was formed in the process of accumulating property. 17th and 18th century, Hobbes and Locke were referred to needing equality.
Joel Karon explained the reasons for this inequality continued in five.
1. In order to keep wealth and power
2. The culture is teaching the acceptance of inequality
3. Do to accept his position.
4. Education is taught inequality.
5. The police, courts, prison existence for inequality.
The dominant views of the stratified care is the functionalist and conflictist. Conflictist argues that a dysfunctional society. And conflictist will claim that they divide winners and losers.
Development, modernization, dependency, world system theory explains the global inequality.
2. Interesting
The higher the statification, the more they have property, the higher they have prestige. But that was the exception. Social theory does not explain all social phenomena.
3. Question
Although caste system is disapeared, in modern times, there is an invisible caste system.
What is the difference between an invisible stratification and visible stratification?
im interested in your question. invisible stratification exists all around the world. it is exactly not a stratification. but when we consider other people who have more wealth and beauty and power, we psychologically think that we are divided by stratification. so depending on the things we have, invisible stratification is dividing us numerously.
