Gender,race,and class relations are closely intertwined with______________authority.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Traditional authority refers to authority that is based on longstanding customs, practices and beliefs. Gender, race and class relations have historically been shaped by traditional authority structures, which have tended to reinforce existing power dynamics and inequalities. While matriarchy (A) refers to a system in which women hold primary power and unilateralism (B) refers to decision-making that is made by one party alone, neither term specifically relates to the interplay between gender, race, class and authority. Totalitarianism (D) refers to a political system in which the state has total control over all aspects of society and individuals. While totalitarianism may interact with gender, race and class relations, it is not as directly relevant to the question as traditional authority.
