Abstract
One of the world’s most pressing problems that increase the gap between the higher and lower social statuses is social inequality. This entails the unequal distribution of all kinds of resources, including food, shelter, education, finances, and health services. The interpretation of its impact depends on the social standing of the interpreter. Some of the most famous people who investigated its effects include Karl Marx, Max Weber, and Rosseau, who relayed the differences in their understanding of the circumstances surrounding it. Those who stand below the level of a distinct line are the less powerful or powerless individuals, and those above are the more influential people. The gazes differ based on the distinction as the interpretation varies from above and below. The crucial dimensions that must be inspected include party, status, and class—all of these are otherwise known as power, honor, and economic order, respectively. This concept distinguishes who among the groups of people are privileged and underprivileged, which is reflected as the means for power (Berreman, 2015). The paper tackles social inequality issues, integrating cultural diversity, ethical perspectives, cultural perspectives, and inequities. Moreover, the paper stated the individualized proposed solutions to the recognized unyielding global issues concerning social inequality.

Social inequality is a broad term that encompasses and involves many factors and issues such as economic background, gender, race, ethnicity, political laws, etc. This issue also stems way back from the earlier history of human society. The presence of minority groups and social circles perceived and treated as lesser than other groups of people in the world’s population reflects the system that supports the imbalance in resources and burdens. The advantages and gains are experienced mainly by those considered in power and high status in the community, while the burdens are placed upon minority groups. Many instances also involve the exploitation and suffering of the disadvantaged group. Social inequality is an issue that continuously affects the rights and liberties of particular groups of people leading to disadvantages and limitations in their quality of life. It is considered a significant global problem because there is an imbalance in distributing the world’s resources and burdens. Some of the areas of life affected by social inequality are the accessibility of health care, availability of occupations, quality of housing, ease of transportation, and rights to education (United Nations Economic and Social Council, 2019).
