Social Inequality and Political Science: Understanding the Dynamics of Power, Access, and Resources

Abstract

Author(s): Jogo Navrro*

Social inequality remains one of the most significant challenges faced by societies around the world. Rooted in complex systems of class, race, gender, and access to resources, inequality has far-reaching consequences for political stability, social cohesion, and economic development. This paper explores the intricate relationship between social inequality and political science, emphasizing how political systems contribute to or alleviate disparities. By examining historical and contemporary examples of inequality, as well as the policies designed to address it, this study highlights the impact of social structures on political participation, voting behavior, and policymaking. Drawing upon both theoretical frameworks and empirical data, the research discusses key issues such as class stratification, racial inequality, and gender bias, as well as the role of public policies in either reinforcing or mitigating these inequalities. The paper concludes by proposing a framework for understanding social inequality that integrates both political and social perspectives, offering potential solutions for more equitable societies.
