EQUALITY, EQUITABILITY, INEQUALITY

Equality

Every person is equal in front of and under the law, and has the right to equal protection and
benefit from the law, without regard to race, national or ethnic origin, color, religion, sex, age,
or mental or physical impairment.

In society:

-Political equality, which means that all members of a society are treated equally

-Consociationalism is a form of nationalism in which elites from different ethnic groups,

religions, and languages work together to run the country.

-Egalitarianism is a philosophical movement that advocates for equality for all individuals.

-Equal opportunity is a requirement that all persons be treated equally.

-Equality of result, in which people's lives are lived in identical ways.

For specific groups:

 Gender equality
 Racial equality
 Equality Party (disambiguation), several political parties

-Social equality is a type of social justice in which everyone in a group has the same position.

Equitability

The extent to which each variety of a particular community is represented by an equal number
of individuals. From the original supplier or suppliers to the end-consumer, equitability refers to
the principle of fairness in the social and economic relationships incorporated in a product's
value chain. This pattern of productivity distribution is referred to as equitability. Equitability is
a measure of how equally an agricultural system's productivity is distributed among its human
beneficiaries. The more fair the system, the more evenly agricultural products food, revenue, or
resources are distributed throughout the farm, town, region, or nation's people. A statistical
distribution or a measure like the Gini coefficient can be used to represent it.

Equitable Distribution of Income

Equitable income distribution guarantees that welfare is distributed fairly and that all members
of the economy have the same opportunity to accumulate wealth. To ensure an equitable
distribution of wealth, the government redistributes tax income. Low-income individuals should
be provided with sufficient assistance to alleviate cost-of-living constraints while without
jeopardizing the desire to work and develop wealth.

Why is it Important?

Income distribution that is equitable promotes societal harmony and cohesiveness. If wealth is
divided too unequally, the majority of people in an economy will suffer at the expense of the
wealthy few. Low-income earners can also benefit from equitable income distribution by having
access to chances to grow their wealth.

In a fair division, equitability indicates that everyone's subjective value of their own portion of
some things is the same. The surplus technique (SP) achieves proportional equitability, a more
sophisticated form. A divide of more than two persons cannot always be both egalitarian and
envy-free.

Inequality

Inequality of outcome:

When some people receive significantly more than others from an economic transaction, this is
known as result inequality. Individuals who sell their labor to a single buyer, a monopsonist,
may earn significantly less than those who sell their labor to a corporation in a highly
competitive market. Income disparities are a common type of outcome inequality.

Inequality of opportunity:

Inequality of opportunity occurs when people are denied access to institutions or jobs, limiting
their potential to benefit from a market economy. Children from low-income families, for
example, may be denied access to high-quality education, limiting their future ability to achieve
high levels of wealth.

Culture of poverty describe as the negative consequences of poverty. It is created by people

who live in underprivileged situations and use it as a coping technique to survive under serious
conditions. According to Lewis, poverty has terrible implications for people who grow up in
poor households in impoverished neighborhoods. In the political economy of disparities, there
are levels based on the type of class they are in, such as the bourgeoisie, the owners of social
reproduction, who are followed by the proletariat, also known as the working class, who do not
have their own production. As well as landowners.
Economic equality means creating a level playing field in which everyone has equal access to
the same wealth. If you work hard enough, you can achieve anything, but it is simply not the
case. Impoverished people are not poor because they choose to be, not all wealthy people
earned their wealth by hard effort. It is also the unequal distribution of money and opportunity
among various groups in society. It is a worry in practically every country around the world, and
many individuals are stuck in poverty with few opportunities to move up the social ladder.
However, being born into poverty does not guarantee that you will remain poor. Each
individual must have right education to reduce inequality and help people out of poverty.

When resources in a given culture are dispersed unevenly, generally through rules of
allocation, distinct patterns emerge along lines of socially defined categories of people. It is the
social differentiation of access to social goods caused by power, religion, kinship, status, race,
ethnicity, gender, age, sexual orientation, and class. Social inequality normally refers to a lack of
equality of outcome, but it can also refer to a lack of equality of access to opportunity. Social
rights include labor market, source of income, health care, and freedom of speech, education,
and political participation.

Social inequality linked to economic inequality the disciplines of economics and sociology often
utilizes different theoretical techniques to investigate and explain economic disparity, both
professions are actively involved in exploring this imbalance. However, other than strictly
economic resources, social and natural resources are unevenly distributed in most countries
and may contribute to social rank. Allocation norms can also have an impact on the distribution
of rights and privileges, social power, access to public goods like education or the judicial
system, suitable housing, transportation, credit and financial services like banking, and other
social goods and services.

Cultural status inequality are characterized as perceived or actual distinctions in how various
groups' cultural norms, practices, symbols, and customs are treated, recognized, or regarded.
Recent research into the causes of civil wars and communal, ethnic, or religious conflicts has
primarily focused on political and economic grievances. However, in many situations,
perceptions of cultural prejudice, exclusion, or unfairness of treatment are augmented by
political and economic difficulties. In understanding the origins of violent group mobilization,
the analysis of cultural status inequalities in societies is thus a crucial supplement to political
and economic analysis. Cultural status inequalities are particularly prone to group mobilization,
and potentially violence, because of the inherent link with group identity. This can take the
form both of ‘entrepreneurial’ mobilization by self-interested elites or grievance-based
mobilization on the part of disadvantaged groups.
