Within Maycomb‚ there were two distinct social classes‚ the good and the bad‚ also known as the white and the black. We can see how Harper Lee makes this apparent throughout the book‚ like the inclusion of details about separation of races in the courtroom. This separation becomes increasingly clear when the white community shuns Atticus for his support of the black community and their equality‚ “Now far be it from me to say who‚ but some of ‘em in this town thought they were doing the right thing

Gender Inequality In 1960‚ a woman made sixty cents for every man’s dollar. In 2010‚ that woman makes but twenty cents more than she would have fifty years ago for doing the same exact job a man does (“Me Too Movement has Shaken the Workplace to its Core”).

“Daystar” in a collection of poems in 1985. It was the year that caught my attention. Current society prides itself on gender inequality‚ though it is obvious to anyone who looks that is not a reality‚ yet it has been getting better. The women in 1985 had more freedom than those in 1885. The women in 1885 no doubt had it better than those in 1085. While I understand that this inequality is still a huge problem‚ I can’t help but wonder what Rita Dove was thinking when she was writing “Daystar”. It

These three events are all examples of racial and gender discrimination‚ which can be argued as the main

Marxists view of gender and age relating to crime would link them to low-class working backgrounds. Marxists state the law represents the interests of the ruling class. Most people that commit crime are young male juveniles‚ Marxists feel they are trying to compete for wealth and social control which would not benefit the capitalist society.

From a Marxist perspective‚ would you argue that globalisation mitigates or deepens global inequality? Explain why.

Firstly Marx would argue that imperialism would bring to the less industrial countries the advantages of capitalist technologies such as railways and more efficient methods of production. Yet Marx argued that these developments would not be positive but rather a part of the same process
