Redistribution theories

Redistribution theories focus on how resources, wealth, and opportunities can be reallocated within a society to promote fairness and equality. These theories suggest that certain groups, often the wealthy or powerful, may hold disproportionate amounts of resources, leading to social and economic inequality. To address this, redistribution can occur through mechanisms like taxation, social welfare programs, or public services, aiming to support those in need and level the playing field. The overall goal is to enable a more equitable society where everyone has access to necessary resources for a decent quality of life.
