Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Social Darwinism was not designed to eliminate competition in the marketplace. Instead, it was a theory that was used to justify the idea that certain individuals or groups were inherently better adapted to succeed in society than others, and therefore should be allowed to thrive while those who were seen as "unfit" should be allowed to fail. It was often used to justify policies that favored the most economically successful members of society while neglecting or harming those who were seen as less successful or "inferior."
