“Generally, conflict theory argues that there are inequalities amongst the dominant group and all the other groups in every society. These inequalities are evident when we look at the structures of wealth, power and status in a society. These are the same structures that maintain the social economic, political and coercive power of one group at the expense of the others.” (SoE 2018: 14) Briefly discuss in your own words what conflict theorists mean by “inequalities” and indicate how different aims and aspirations, statuses and opportunities give rise to these inequalities in society. Also provide an example to substantiate your argument.
