Explain how social status intersects with economic inequality? Remember to include a clear explanation.

Answer 1

Social status intersects with economic inequality because all sociologists such Karl Marx or Weber believe that the society is organized into a hierarchy shaped by the intersecting forces of; education, race, gender, and economic class. According to Karl Marx, the society is divided into the capitalistic and the worker class. According to Weber class differences are largely based on economic inequality. The rich landowners in higher echelons and poor workers in the lower.
