Social Stratification and Theories of Social Class

Abstract: Social Stratification and Theories of Social Class : This 5 page report discusses the development and attributes of social stratification and social classes. Humans most often choose to establish social class based on a matter of rising from a large base of homogeneity to a pinnacle of the elite or the unique. Ultimately, the stratification of social class (and power) results in an unequal distribution of political and economic power. Most "objective" of delineations are those based on income, occupation, and education. No secondary sources. BWsclass.wps
