SOCIAL INEQUALITY -Canada Vs India
Current events that prompted the selection
The word social inequality is used by sociologists to define the unequal distribution of valued
assets, benefits and roles of community. The notion of cultural distinction is the key to the idea.
Social traits— variations, personalities, and functions — are used to distinguish individuals, to
split them into distinct classifications with economic inequality consequences. Social distinction
alone does not necessarily involve dividing people into a status, privilege, and strength structure.
But if a cultural group, such as class, occupation, ethnicity, or ethnicity, brings individuals in a
situation to demand more funds or facilities.
The comparative study will focus on various similarities and differences between Canada and
India.
Canada & India
Both the countries believe in equality of opportunity, which means equality of living conditions,
literacy conditions, and income conditions. To do this, one has to seek the meritocracy in an
individual and not divide according to caste, creed, and gender.this is known as social
stratification.
While in India, the stratification further divides the population into urban and rural. In urban
areas, the stratification is based on income status, educational qualifications. while in rural areas
the stratification is more diverse are based on caste, class, occupation, race( Saravanan,2015).
American and western countries, the stratification as according to Karl Marx and Max Weber,
is divided into bourgeoisie and the proletariat. However, sociologists have come up with one
more class the sub-proletariat , that is the blue collar and the white collar workers.
