"Social Class and Social Participation"
"Social class" refers to a group of people who share similar economic and social status, often determined by factors like income, education, and occupation. "Social participation" involves individuals engaging in community activities, civic duties, and social networks. These two concepts are interconnected; individuals from higher social classes often have more opportunities and resources to participate socially, such as access to education and networks. Conversely, those from lower social classes may face barriers like financial constraints or lack of opportunities, affecting their ability to engage fully in society. This relationship influences community dynamics and social cohesion.
