Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Majority-minority relations involve a power differential, with the majority group holding more societal and institutional power than the minority group. This power dynamic creates the potential for conflict as the majority group may seek to maintain their power and privilege at the expense of the minority group. In an equalizing relationship or legal relationship, there is less potential for conflict due to the absence of a power imbalance.
