Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stratification and inequalities are inherent features of any complex society, whether past or present. Even in societies that have attempted to promote equality and fairness, it has proven difficult to eliminate all forms of stratification and disparities. Examples include the Communist regimes of Eastern Europe and China, which struggled to eradicate social hierarchies and end inequalities despite their efforts to implement policies of social leveling. In short, some degree of stratification and differentiation appears to be an inevitable feature of human societies.
